Dial 8

Velvet Acid Christ

On a sea of nails in self doubt

I push this feeling further into this sound

In all my failings I could never hide

The truth of pain that left me broken on the inside



We are the future, we are the lie

Trapped in holy innocence we only wish to thrive

We are the nightmare buried deep in your mind

We are the travesty sweetened with your pain



Alive, alive, but barely, alive

Alive, alive, but barely, alive



Shepherds spreading death

Dragged outside, shot in the head

Holy maimed again

Dragged outside, shot in the head



A million faces in a bloody shroud

I hear their voices calling me to put you down

Covered in blood, drowning in my hate

I covered my eyes, I covered your eyes, I covered my eyes



We are the cancer eating at your mind

We are the ministries for all your crimes



Shepherds spreading death

Dragged outside, shot in the head

Holy maimed again

Dragged outside, shot in the head

Dragged outside, shot in the head

Holy maimed again, holy maimed again
