I bleed real blood
Red as a your lips
It gushes out of me
In Technicolor strips
Can't hold it back
It is out of control
That's the way that it is
When you're a slave to your soul
My heart is a cathedral
The holiest of hosts
So gothic and so hallowed
And filled up with ghosts
My heart is a cathedral
Where the bells ring true
And I need to fill it with you
I feel real pain
From my head to my toes
It's always with me
Always will be I suppose
I pray for relief
But God does not hear
He must be too busy
To lend me His ear
I feel a twinge
All down my old spine
Like something has grabbed me
And now nothing will align
I'm beat down and busted
Like a broken old bird
I kneel at your altar
But I don't hear a word
