This Hell Could Finally End - Stabbing Westward lyrics
from the album "Ungod"

LOST

Lost is all I will be. You are all I will be.
Wasted, broken promise, silent lies.

CONTROL

So much of me is you, I don't know just who I am.
Now I just can't believe in myself or in anything.
And this is what you take from me.
I gave you my soul, I gave you control of me.
Now I just can't believe in myself or in anything.
And this is what you take from me.
Can't you just believe you are my everything?

NOTHING

Some nights I feel like I have died, or something deep inside is dying.
I try to understand my crimes, but there's nothing here that really matters.
I don't want to believe in you, I can't believe in you.
I don't want it, I don't need it, I don't want it, but I can't stop myself.
Now endless questions fill my head, some nights I'm frightened by the answers.
No you can't hurt me, nothing's real, no pain you cause can last forever.
I don't want to believe in you, I can't believe in you.
I don't want it, I don't need it, I don't want it, but I can't stop myself.
One night I swore I'd die for you, there's nothing else I'd rather die for,
But I'll try to live another night; there's too much hate to be forgotten.

ACF

You are all I am, you are all I ever want to be, I think of you.
A solitary cry echoes through my throat and through my mind, I think of you.
I think I woke up screaming, I had a dream that you still loved me.
I think I woke up screaming again.
For hours I'll just stare at my ceiling, at nothing at all, I think of you.
Candlelight through bells makes shadows just like roses in my mind, and I think of you.
I think I woke up screaming, I had a dream that you still loved me.
I think I woke up screaming again.
Could this last forever, or will I die? Just can I die?
Maybe I could try to take a bath and drink a little wine and think of you.
But probably I'll lie naked on the floor by candlelight and I'll think of you.

LIES

Your soul, a pit of stone, the depths I wish I could have known.
Dangerous, black and full of spite, thoughts of you fill my night.
But now we lay naked on the floor, I'm lost, I'm drowning in your soul.
I was searching for some answer in your eyes.
I find malicious laughter and a love that has died.
You are haunting my reality, your lies are the only truth that I believe.
You are haunting my reality, now every time I think about you I die.
Hatred runs through me marrow-deep, I long to tear your eyes out in your sleep.
This passion can lead to evil crimes, well do I kill or do I choose to die?
Acid burn etched through my brain, someone dies before I go insane.
I was searching for some answer in your eyes.
I find malicious laughter and a love that has died.
You are haunting my reality, your lies are the only truth that I believe.
You are haunting my reality, yow every time I think about you I die.
Lies!
Soon now I will be gone, I wish to God I could have known.
I love you, I hate you every night, this longing for your soul has got me scared.
But now we lay naked on the floor, I'm lost, I'm drowning in your soul.
I was searching for some answer in your eyes.
I find malicious laughter, hate and lies, fucking lies.

UNGOD

You don't understand this, I think you never did.
Silently I search for a reason to exist.
I found a way to feel you, I feel so fucking old.
You're burning up inside me, but I feel so fucking cold.
You are clutched tight in my fingers, you caress my skin so light,
You are welling up inside me, you have finally freed yourself,
You are flowing cross my pale skin, you are running down my arm,
You are salty as I taste you, I have finally made you warm.
You stare at me so silent, you stare at me so cold.
I think you stare right through me, that stare has made me old.
I found a way to feel you, I feel so fucking old.
You're burning up inside me, but I feel so fucking cold.
You are clutched tight in my fingers, you caress my skin so light,
You are welling up inside me, you have finally freed yourself,
You are flowing cross my pale skin, you are running down my arm,
You are salty as I taste you, I have finally made you warm.
Take this as an offering, take this as a sign.
How much can you take from me?
I sink into this darkness, I sink into this cold.
This emptiness is calling, I've nothing left to lose.
I found a way to kill you, I feel so fucking cold.
You're burning up inside me, I feel so fucking old.
And you are clutched tight in my fingers, you caress my skin so light,
You are welling up inside me, you have finally freed yourself,
You are flowing cross my pale skin, you are running down my arm,
You are salty as I taste you, I've finally made you warm.

THROW

The night is cold as I roam these streets.
The air is thick with hints of coming rain.
Your face flashes through my head, I swallow pain.
So this is how it feels to be betrayed.
This is what it looks like, this is what it feels like, this is what it tastes like,
This is what you've done to me.
This is what it looks like, this is what it feels like, this is what it tastes like when
You throw this all away. (silent, laughing)
The lake is rough as I sit quietly, remembering how our life used to be.
An angry, vacant silence fills my head, now all the empty promises are dead.
This is what it looks like, this is what it feels like, this is what it tastes like,
This is what you've done to me.
This is what it looks like, this is what it feels like, this is what it tastes like when
You throw this all away. (silent, laughing)
The night is old, the sky a shade of grey, the tears roll off my face, die in the rain.
And an angry vacant silence fills my head, now all the empty promises are dead.

VIOLENT MOOD SWINGS

You've left me with nothing left but questions, you left me here not knowing who I am.
You left me so much fucking time to hate you, you left me with no choice but to die.
Violent mood swings.
Your voice whispers nearly all the time now, reminding me just how worthless I am.
Sometimes I just hear you laugh forever, I want you the fuck out of my head.
Violent mood swings.
You're inside my pain, inside my sorrow; I'd die for one last moment inside you.
I miss you so fucking bad I am you, so whose god will fucking save me now?
Violent mood swings.

RED ON WHITE

Now I'm so tired of working this out.
Gonna give myself up to the truth of what this is.
Take from me all of my blood, take from me all of my soul.
This is the best thing I can do. Why is it me instead of you?
I come down.
Now this is real, I can't go back, caught up with everything here tonight.
Gonna fuck myself up, gonna throw this away, gonna give this to you.
First red on white, then red on red, I left my soul back in my bed.
This is the best thing I can do. Why is it me instead of you?

CAN'T HAPPEN HERE

Late last night I tripped in violent shades of green.
A thousand voiceless faces were chasing me.
I ran through air as thick as glue from a thousand fucking faces that all look like you.
Through night as black as hate my spirit fled,
Through branches filled with thorns, my eyes bled and bled.
How could I ever hope to win this race when every time I close my eyes I see your face?
It just can't happen here.
from the album "Wither Blister Burn + Peel"

I DON'T BELIEVE

I'm such an asshole. God, I'm such a stain.
I just keep fucking up again and again.
I don't believe that I could be so stupid and so naïve.
I don't believe that there is nothing left for me.
You crawled into my mind when you crawled into my bed,
Said everything I've ever longed to hear.
So perfect, so alive, once inside you sucked me dry.
You used me up and left me here for dead.
I don't believe that I could be so stupid and so naïve.
I don't believe that there is nothing left for me.
I crave it desperately, it's a cancer eating me,
An addiction too intense to be denied.
Worthless, I'm a whore crawling back for more.
It's pathetic how I feed off this abuse.
I don't believe that I could be so stupid and so naïve.
I don't believe that there is nothing left for me.
God, I feel so stupid.
You told me that you loved me, and I believed you loved me.
You swore that you loved me, and I believed.
Now I know it was a lie.

SHAME

I only see myself reflected in your eyes,
So all that I believe I am essentially are lies,
And everything I hoped to be or ever thought I was
Died with your belief in me, so who the hell am I?
I don't know if I am real without you. What is left of me without you?
I don't know what's real without you. How can I exist without you?
I'm wandering round confused, wondering why I try.
The more that you deny my pain, the more it intensifies.
I pray for someone to ache for me the way I ache for you.
If you ignore that I'm alive, I've nothing to cling to.
I don't know if I am real without you. What is left of me without you?
I don't know what's real without you. How can I exist without you?
I stare into this mirror, so tired of this life.
If only you would speak to me, or cared if I'm alive.
Once I swore I would die for you, but I never meant like this.
I don't know if I am real without you. What is left of me without you?
I don't know what's real without you. How can I exist without you?

WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO

You make it hard to breathe, it's as if I'm suffocating,
And when you're next to me, I can feel your heartbeat through my skin.
It makes me sad to think this could all be for nothing.
I wish there was a way for you to see inside me.
I've never felt this way about anyone or anything.
Tell me, what do I have to do to make you happy?
What do I have to do to make you understand?
What do I have to do to make you want me?
But if I can't make you want me, what to I have to do?
I know exactly what you're thinking, but I swear this time I will not let you down.
I'm not as selfish as I used to be, that was a part of me that never made me proud.
Right now I think I would try anything at all to keep you satisfied.
God, I hope you see what losing you would do to me.
All I want is one more chance, tell me, what do I have to do to make you happy?
What do I have to do to make you understand?
What do I have to do to make you want me?
And if I can't make you want me, just tell me...
How can I? How can I? How can we?
What do I have to do to make you want me?
What do I have to do to make you understand?
What do I have to do to make you love me?
And if I can't make you love me, just tell me what to I have to do to forget about you?

WHY?

I am not here, I think I've never been here at all, or ever will.
I feel like a place where no one goes any more.
Why can't you see that everything's broken?
And why can't you see that my life's turned grey?
I can't believe in anything sacred when I don't believe that I am real.
I need someone to break the silence screaming in my heart and in my soul.
It seems so bizarre, but none of this matters.
Thoughts disappear and hopes have died.
But now I am safe, nothing can hurt me here.
Why can't you see my need for forgiveness, the truth and the lies so confused as one?
I can't believe in anything sacred when I don't believe in anything.
I need someone to break the silence screaming in my heart and in my soul.
I am alone, locked in my memories, there's nowhere left for me to hide,
But I am not real, I've made all I am with lies.
Why does it seem that everything's different?
And why does it seem that only you are real?
I don't believe in anything sacred, so why do I feel so damn alone?
I need someone to break the silence screaming in my heart and in my soul.

INSIDE YOU

I feel your lips, I taste your skin, I need to know, I need to feel you from within.
As your blood burns through my skin, I feel complete, I breathe you in.
It's where you end and I begin, if only I could stay here forever.
So much to tell you and so much to give you, so much to confide now that I'm inside you.
We are flesh, we are one, so why do I feel so much guilt for what I've done?
As your blood burns through my skin, I feel release, I breathe you in.
It's where you end and I begin, if only I could stay here forever.
So much to tell you, so much to give you, so much to confide, now that I'm inside.
So much to teach me, so much to show me, so much to give me, so much to tell me.
(I'm inside you.)

FALLS APART

I'm tangled and broken, left scattered on the floor.
It's useless now, these pieces they can never make me whole.
This is where it falls apart, I feel helpless as my everything comes crashing down on me.
This is where it falls apart, I feel helpless as my fucking world comes crashing down on me.
You wither and you blister, I watch you burn and peel.
It's not like you can save me, it's not like you even care.
This is where it falls apart, I feel helpless as my everything comes crashing down on me.
This is where it falls apart, I feel helpless as my fucking world comes crashing down on me.
Wasted, useless, pointless, scattered, broken, hopeless, tangled, shattered,
Withered, blistered, tied, pointless, wasted, useless, scarred,
I'm finding it so hard to hold on.
This is where it falls apart and crashes down on me.

SO WRONG

Wasted thoughts of you, desperate prayers to you.
Give me back my mind, I'm empty inside.
And it's so wrong that I need you, it's so wrong that I need abuse,
And it's so wrong that I need you, so wrong that I'm scared I'll die alone.
What have I become? Everything's undone.
A candle burns here in your honour, my soul a shrine I've built for you.
There's nothing left inside me, nothing left inside but you.
And it's so wrong that I need you, it's so wrong that I need abuse,
And it's so wrong that I need you, so wrong that I'm scared I'll die alone.
Can't seem to pretend this night needs to end.
I can't fill this hole, you are all I know.
And it's so wrong that I need you, it's so wrong that I need abuse,
And it's so wrong that I need you, so wrong that I'm scared I'll die alone.

CRUSHING ME

I'm feeling the weight of the world and it's crushing me.
I'm feeling the weight of everyday life and it's crushing me.
How much more will it take? How much more until it breaks me? This world is crushing me.
It's crushing me.
I'm feeling the weight of the world and it's crushing me.
I'm feeling the hate of the world and it's crushing me.
I swallow the hate, betrayal and lies,
I swallow it whole, shove it deep down inside of me.
How much more will it take? How much more til it breaks me?
Feeling the weight of the world and it's crushing me.

SLEEP

She's been here so many times before.
She can't remember when she last felt anything at all but this fear and anger.
She stares intently at the door, listens for his footsteps.
She knows exactly what's in store, and the knowing makes it worse.
Floating high above her bed, staring at her father's head,
Wishing one of them were dead so this hell could finally end.
When he calls her daddy's little girl, she doesn't hear him.
When he crushes her, she can't feel her screams are silent.
Hides in the corners of her mind where she plays contently.
She leaves this nightmare far behind, she escapes inside her dreams, inside her tears.
Floating high above her bed, staring at her father's head,
Wishing one of them were dead so this hell could finally end.

SLIPPING AWAY

I feel it slipping away, I gave it all, but no one cared, I feel it slipping away.
I feel it sleeping away, my God, it's slipping away.
I gave it all, but no one cared, I feel it sleeping away.
I feel it slipping away, no more pain, no more fear, I feel it slipping away.
I just can't learn to forget.
Now I'm choking on the memories, choking on regret.
I tried, but I can't find a way to untangle all the pieces after they've been thrown away.
I feel it slipping away.
I will not suffer this loss of you again and again and again.
I refuse to continue to live in this perpetual nightmare, I decide it ends right here.
I feel it slipping away.
Everything is slipping away.
from the soundtrack to "Escape from L.A."

DAWN

My angel, my reluctant whore decided she can't take no more.
So let's fuck til we fall asleep, please don't wake me when you leave.
Just kiss me before you go, promise to kiss me before you go.
A funeral but nobody's died, dressed in black and black inside.
In the morning you'll be gone, a stranger that I'll never know.
So please kiss me before you go, promise to kiss me before you go.
It's too hot now to fall asleep, so I'll just lie here and watch you breathe.
In the morning you'll be gone, like everything I've ever loved.
So just kiss me before you go, promise to kiss me before you go.
