"Detroit" lyrics

"Detroit"

They tore down the Berlin Wall, they let the hammer and sickle fall
They fitted me for a uniform, had it ready the day I was born

I destroy everyone I love, I destroy everything I touch

I don't own my own skin, all I got is original sin
Brought down in a broken home, mixed blood brittle bones

I destroy everyone I love, I destroy everything I touch

Love sex, female hex, open eyes, empty legs
No release, exist to cease, gimme a knife, break my teeth

They tore down the Berlin Wall, they tore down the Berlin Wall
They tore down the Berlin Wall, they tore down the Berlin Wall
