You had your ideas of me
Splendid, the conclusions
Met the real man inside
Shattered your illusions
A killer is a killer
Murder just the same
Nothing is behind me
Dying for my shame

Underneath all the blood
It's still the hands you crave
On my hands the blood is drying
To the blood I am a slave

Just a pound of flesh
Given for my sins
Leave me with the scars
It begins again
Your name in the darkness
So simple the game
On the tip of my tongue
Killing's all the same

Underneath all the blood
It's still the hands you crave
On my hands the blood is drying
To the blood I am a slave

I'm only here to hurt you
By my hand you will die
Soothing words never true
Just so you don't cry
The blood on my hands is drying
I need to release the flood
I need another, one more
In your heart is the blood

Underneath all the blood
It's still the hands you crave
On my hands the blood is drying
To the blood I am a slave
