Dilate

[Verse 1]
I've never been inside
I've never been on fire
I've always known the cure
Afraid that I might die here
(Why do you wonder why?)
I force myself so deep
I starve myself to sleep
A temporary host but the parasite can't eat
It chisels in my brain, it sucked up everything
(You should know by now)

[Chorus]
We hide behind what isn't real
Emotions come, I try not to feel
You've got the love I need to steal
Black poisoned soul will never heal
I pray for darkness, curse the sun
My only friend, a loaded gun
How can I stop what I've begun?
I am what I have done

[Verse 2]
Naked little prey
Can't make this go away
The riddle stays the same
Welcome to the game
(Who could hide your shame?)
You mean everything to me
You're everything I need
Counting on my shit to hide your purity
Skin that's cold as ice, unfolds for this device
(For all you know, I'm Jesus Christ)

[Chorus]
We hide behind what isn't real
Emotions come, I try not to feel
You've got the love I need to steal
Black poisoned soul will never heal
I pray for darkness, curse the sun
My only friend, a loaded gun
How can I stop what I've begun?
I am what I have done

[Bridge]
Come inside
Tied and twisted, you are mine
Suffer to come to me
And my machines of misery
Now I know I'm alive
How could I lose you?
How could I survive?
Why are you scared of me?
Dilated, violated
(If you don't know by now)
(Then you won't know by now)
(If you don't know by now)
(If you don't know by now)
(Then you won't know by now)
(If you don't know by now)
(If you don't know by now)
(Then you won't know by now)
(If you don't know by now)
(Then you won't know by now)

[Outro]
Come inside
Tied and twisted, you are mine
Suffer to come to me
And my machines of misery
Now I am alive
But how could I lose you?
How could I survive?
Why are you scared of me?
Dilated, violated
