Lyrics:

Wretched be thy name of the one you serve
And you who plays the game
Twisted, is the mind that was yours
And now beaten til you’re tame
Oh wretched be thy name
Yeah beaten ‘til you’re lame

Give me millions, give me blow
A violent thrill is all I know

Meanwhile, we’ll live without a cause
Freedom, praise and all
But God keeps stringing me along
Just give me time

Isn’t it all insane? We just observe
And they all do the same
Ruler, you close all the doors
And now beat me ’til I’m tame
Oh wretched be thy name
Yeah beaten ‘til you’re lame

Fuckin’ bleeding from your nose
All just to feel some control

The new sanity is painting me crazy
I can’t see my reflection
Not anymore
Stripped down to organs and bones

I don’t feel anymore
I don’t feel anymore
You took that away from me

Oh you raped me
You ain’t me
You hate me
You ain’t me

I don’t feel anymore
Something has changed, its not like before
Nah I don’t need your faith at my door
Now that I’m here I know that you ain’t me
You ain’t me

Meanwhile, we’ll live without a cause
Freedom, praise and all
But God keeps stringing me along
Live without a cause
Freedom, praise and all
But God keeps stringing me along
Just give me time

The new sanity is painting me crazy
I can’t see my reflection
Not anymore
Stripped down to organs and bones
