Lyrics

    I want to wake up in your
    White, white sun
    I want to wake up in your world
    With no pain
    But I'll just suffer in a hope to die someday
    While you are numb all of the way
    
    When I hate it I know you can feel but
    When you love it you know it's not real
    No
    
    And I am resigned to this wicked fucking world
    On its way to hell
    The living are dead and
    I hope to join them too
    I know what to do and I do it well...
    
    When I hate it I know you can feel but
    When you love it you know it's not real
    No
    
    Shoot myself to love you
    If I loved myself I'd be shooting you

Trivia

The lyrics "In a wicked world/on the way to hell/we know what to do and we do it well" was tested out as a live spoken interlude during the transition of songs on the Dead To The World Tour.
