Here I am lover man
Here I am abortion
Here I am miscarriage
Here I am selfish maaaaan
Pretend prayer pretend care
Makes everything seem fair
These perfect abbatoirs, these perfect actors
Babies bones, dustbinned, shorn
Oh such love smeared stimulus
Vacuumed pain slow suck luck
Wake in hell murder one
Troughs o' bones wade in gore
Weep hеlpless skewerеd flesh
Milky teeth soured and fetid
PG certificate all cuts unfocused
Sick in skin embarrassed within
[Bridge]
Civilised Love-Talk-Flirt-Kiss-Fuck
See you next week sugar
Call back, he hangs up
Be broken, on yr knees now
With child, all he gives scorn
Pathetic wretch, he laughs so
This love so pure so beautiful
Cured so easy-hospitalise
Mutliation lesions of life
Stitches, wounds, doctor, divinity
So much love this blind affinity
[Chorus]
Only a god bruise
Only a god sooth
Only a god
Reserves the right
To forgive those that revile him
