Curse the Spot

Stake my life on a smile
Mouth is like saccharine
Behind the teeth
Incantations to punish them!

You want the monster don't you?
Your punishment controls you!
I'll step into the role, reverse the mirror
Point it towards you

The crime is existence
A drop on the table cloth
To exist in this spent world
My creation is dangerous

You're black and white, I find this ugly!
My fingers, delicate, can wrap around that neck!

Blame me for the ills of mankind
I'm not guilty
I'm not guilty!
You wanna see me swing
I'm not guilty
I'm taking you with me!

You curse the spot
All you see is the drop
You're so caught up
I'm treacherous

I don't do this for the ones
Who suffered at your hands
I don't do this for their love
It's not what they command
I do it for myself
I'm here to purge the garden

Lead me down to the river
I don't need your permission
Lead me down to the river
I don't need your permission

If you wanna play holy
I'll be the snake in the garden
If you wanna play holy
I'll be the snake in the garden

Blame me for the ills of mankind
I'm not guilty
I'm not guilty!
You wanna see me swing
I'm not guilty
I'm taking you with me!

You curse the spot
All you see is the drop!

You curse the spot
I'm not guilty, I'm taking you with me!
I do this for myself and no one else!
I do this for myself and no one else!
And no one else!
