I just realised
God made a mistake
By giving me intellect
By giving me intellect
And I
Just realised
I don't have to do what he says
I don't have to do what he says
To combine
Our tempting bodies
Is to do as he planned
Is to do as he planned
Just imagine
Being related to something like us
Intellect is
Responsibility
But we don't even know
It's full extent
It's full extent
Whatever it is
Intellect is
A great, great risk
So let's part our ways
Abort this sick experiment
Go wherever we please
Abort intellect

I found a wooden house built in a birch tree forest
There must be people inside
There must be a mouth to feed
A place to breed
And I see smoke coming out of the little chimney
I hear them screaming for joy
Words of affection
It's like a miracle struck
A new life is here
That must have been good
That must have been warm
I can only guess
I can only witness

Come on in, walk the carcass of the old world
Leave the west to rot
See nature reach out it's fingers
Like a kraken dragging down a ship
Walk along the teeth of an idle jaw
Which took them by surprise
Dracula's castle of the post-industrial society
Temporary reminder of the turbulent days
How it's so quiet now

If I came across a female I would stare at her and smile
And if she smiled back I'd make sure to lick her eye
Because there's nothing as beautiful as somebody's smiling eyes
There's nothing as beautiful as a girl giving me a smile
Only if the person doesn't mind, I would
Proceed to rub my cheek against her cheek
Because, oh, I miss the texture of somebody else's skin
Because, oh, I miss them
But I'm too scared to
Give them a hug
I hope I don't do something wrong
I wonder what they'll think of me
Will they believe me when I say
I just want a friend?
And I hope they understand
Because it's been so long
Since I haven't been so alone

So you fell into my trap
You let me in and i tricked us
Otherwordly display
I will feast on the flesh
Just to learn how
Disposable your bodies can be
And it is what it is
It lives in my head
And it doesn't want you to know it's secrets
I try to push you away
But you keep coming back
So i push you again
And you keep coming back
Otherwordly display
I will feast on the flesh
Just to learn how
Disposable your bodies can be
And it is what it is
It lives in my head
And it doesn't want you to know it's secrets
