Rape me of my innocence
Amidst these cold and rainy days
There's so much hate beneath this sky
My inspirations all washed away
So tie me down and cut me up
And pour my blood upon the earth

No helpful hands to hold me up
And I could give a fuck for all that it's worth
Breath in, breath out, but take a closer look
Because your life is laced and now you're hooked

The hunter's become the hunted
When it rains, it pours 
And instinctive push
You better lock your doors

Take a look around, tell me what you see
It's upside down, skewed permanently
Take a look around, tell me what you find
Just an empty search through a foreign kind

I'm sickened by this odious scent
Gently drifting on the breeze
So much at risk, so much at stake
And now we all fall to our knees

So cut me down, and turn me loose
And spill my thoughts upon the page
A hopeless attempt to redefine
Between our skyline and the seventh stage

Tell me what you see?
Tell me what you find?
Tell me what you feel?

Take a look around, line 'em up 
It's permanent

So you better check ya source
You better lock your doors
And take a closer look
Because the choice is yours

So get on or get off, give up or give in 
Get on or get off, take a closer look
