Oh, under the knife
Waiting for the iron breath of life
Vacant, glassy eyes
Faded away to midnight
Still, absence of breathing
Artfully fashioned from the sinner's clay
Life, unlocked by secrets
Jealousy sought for, a high price to pay
Mind, fractured and restless
Broken and rebuilt by the hands of a god
Words, templates of wisdom
Echoing mantras through hallways of thought
Oh, under the knife
Waiting for the iron breath of life
Vacant, glassy eyes
Faded away to midnight
Oh, it's an evil sign
When everything you are is slipping slowly
It's pulling you apart
Wordlessly, silently falling
Need, genius, obsession
Days without sleeping, seeking the key
Death to life everlasting
Rivers of water, flowing and deep
See, look what you've made me
Soulless and lonely, banished by men
Now, I throw off your shackles
Though you pursue me to the Earth's frigid end
Oh, under the knife
Waiting for the iron breath of life
Vacant, glassy eyes
Faded away to midnight
Oh, it's an evil sign
When everything you are is slipping slowly
It's pulling you apart
Wordlessly, silently falling
Wakeup, wakeup
Wakeup, wakeup now
Wakeup, wakeup
Wakeup, wakeup,now
