The Cynic

[Verse 1]
Keep your sticky fingers off me
I hate the stench of you
Sickening and stale
The sharp synthetic lies
Bleach, amyl, dust and sweat
Cold hands and shivers inside
Who was a victim
Who are you to say?

[Pre-Chorus]
I was so much younger then
All these years I've kept my silence

[Chorus 1]
Save your sympathies
Shut up and give in
There is no sin
Nothing can change it (we're all alone)
Once the damage is done

[Bridge]
I never wanted this
I never wanted this
I never wanted this
I never wanted this
I never wanted this
I never wanted this
I never wanted this
I never wanted this

[Chorus 2]
I blame me
Shut up and give in
There is no sin
Nothing can change it (nothing at all)
Once the damage is done
