lyrics

I want nothing
NOTHING
And I'm never satisfied
I want nothing
NOTHING
And I'm never satisfied
Cuz with every spark
And every burn
The blackness returns
When will I ever learn

I wanna reach inside your heart
And make you see
That it's empty
No you don't need any of these
Pretty little things
My friend, my man
You can just be

So burn your body of desire
It's an inch deep and a mile wide
In an apt use of your masochism
And flare for the extreme
Spill the blood of your idols
And the blood of your dreams

And in the clearing
When the self is ablaze
See the deep roots
Of the deepest fake
That I am you and you are me
And that we all want to be free
But we don't want to be free
We wanna be amused
We wanna be safe

I wanna reach inside your heart
And make you see
That it's empty
No you don't need anything to see
My friend, my love
You can just be
