Pulling Your Insides Out

Baby, watch my blood boil

To an opalescent blue

Better draw the curtain,

They're trying to catch

A glimpse of you

Slowly watch the fruit die,

Still clinging to the vine

Redemption from a bottle

That stays empty all the time



But, my dear, it's worth the pain

When they're pulling your insides out



Baby, know your nemesis

He's posing as your best friend

Don't believe the newspapers,

They're telling lies again

The cold hand of the healers

Slices your soul in two 

They roll out the red carpet

Just to pull it out

From under you



But, my dear, it's worth the pain

When they're pulling your insides out

Pulling your insides out



Baby, mind the vultures,

They're circling 'round above

Feeding from the idols,

They think they can 

Draw blood from a stone

The more the diamond glitters,

The more it can deceive

The truth lay in the treasure

Of what we disbelieve



But, my dear, it's worth the pain

When they're pulling your insides out

Pulling your insides out

Pulling your insides out
