Pornography lyrics

A hand in my mouth, a life spills into the flowers

We all look so perfect as we all fall down

In an electric glare, the old man cracks with age

She found his last picture in the ashes of the fire

An image of the queen echoes 'round the sweating bed

Sour like yellow sounds inside my head

Books and films and in life and in heaven

Sounds of slaughter as your body turns

But it's too late, but it's too late

One more day like today and I'll kill you

A desire for flesh and real blood

I'm gonna watch you drown in the shower

Push my life through your open eyes

I wanna fight this sickness, find a cure

I must fight this sickness
