Mr Self Destruct

Mr. Self Destruct

I am the voice inside your head

(and I control you)

I am the love you want in bed

(and I control you)

I am the sex that you provide

(and I control you)

I am the hate you try to hide

(and I control you)

I take you where you want to go

I give you all you need to know

I drag you down I use you up

Mr. Self Destruct

I speak religion’s message clear

(and I control you)

I am denial, guilt, and fear

(and I control you)

I am the prayers of the naive

(and I control you)

I am the lie that you believe

(and I control you)

I take you where you want to go

I give you all you need to know

I drag you down I use you up

Mr. Self Destruct

You let me do this to you

You let me do this to you

You let me do this to you

You let me do this to you

I am the needle in your vein

(and I control you)

I am the high you can’t sustain

(and I control you)

I am the pusher, I’m the whore

(and I control you)

I am the need in you for more

(and I control you)

I am the bullet in the gun

(and I control you)

I am the truth from which you run

(and I control you)

I am a silencing machine

(and I control you)

I am the end of all your dreams

(and I control you)

I take you where you want to go

I give you all you need to know

I drag you down I use you up

Mr. Self Destruct

I really don’t know why I’m posting lyrics to something that isn’t mine. Maybe it’s just that it seems like I COULD have written it if I had a bit more talent. I dunno. There are a lot of Nails songs that I can identify with.

I suppose there are a lot of times that this could describe me, even if it doesn’t show on the outside. Perhaps I’m up too late. Perhaps I’m rambling.

By the way, I didn’t win the lottery, which means The Gate won’t be getting built for at least a little while longer. That is if it ever even progresses beyond the phase where it’s only a dream.

Speaking of dreams, it’s getting to be time for bed.
