diabolical work of art

throughout this industry i see a lot of cunts

practicing hypocrisy without a thought for anything

but the game it must be played

compromises must be made

sacrifice integrity just to hit the magazines

collapsing heaven with your fingertips

summon infection with just a smile

take off the mask

let them see your scars

you diabolical work of art

take off your clothes

let them touch your heart

you diabolical work of art

gotta hand it to you players

it takes a lot to sell your soul

lie through your teeth in the dentist chair while they rip those fuckers out

but at least you've got a name

something to carve your way

but use it wisely

you've made some powerful enemies

who cannot wait to see you fail

pick your carcass to the bone

the vultures are all diabolical

they've played the game

they want your throne

they want your throne

take off the mask

let them see your scars

you diabolical work of art

take off your clothes

let them touch your heart

you diabolical work of art

so is your stomach feeling fuller? now you've stolen all the love

and tell me

are your pupils still dilated

since you stole my sun?

you help them - the demons scratching at the walls in my head

you restrain them - the angels trying to bring me back from the dead

i've had enough

i've had enough
