Songtext zu 'Crimson Tears' von Human Debris

Here you stand again
The walls are closing in
Numbness flowing though your veins
Relief of horror is the pain
The lord of torment rules alone
Summons you before his throne
He demands your sacrifice
In obedience you pay the price

Scars unnumbered tell the tale
Battles in black mist and ruby spray
Bloody bargains with the knife
Desperate just to feel, feel alive
The cut, it's done
And, for a while, peace it brings
Your blood runs down
In crimson streams

And it hits the ground
To dry like earth
The razorblade, a trusted friend
Seducing coolness, shiny steel
Brilliant edges and smooth feel
Will ease the hot and burning skin
The wounds not yet healed
The stains not yet gone
But the horrors
Soon awake and are once more afoot again

Once more crushed by agony
The blade alone can set you free
And again with blood you pay
For some sort of rest today
Scars unnumbered tell the tale
Of endless strife, black mist and ruby spray
Bloody bargains with the knife
Desperate just to feel, just to feel alive

The cut is done
And, for a while, peace it brings
Your blood runs down
In crimson streams
And hits the ground
To dry like earth
The wounds not yet healed
The stains not yet gone
But the horrors
Are afoot again

While laughter's ringing in your ears
The blade will help fight your fears
With laughter ringing in your ears
The blade will help to fight your fears
