"The Beautiful Wound" lyrics - AT THE GATES
AT THE GATES
"The Beautiful Wound"
My veins they are open
And yours to fill
The beast of my sins
Ain't easy to kill
Drowning in love, by bitterness warped
We sleep in different nights
Ugly and drugged, rotten to the core
But I just can't let this die
My intellect blind
My will amputated
It's a sweet little need
Your need to be hated
Ugly, drugged and fevered
By bitterness warped
Your beauty rages through my veins
Declaring war
Drowning in love, by bitterness warped
Stab your darkness into me
Ugly and drugged, rotten to the core
I see a truth you cannot see
As smooth as the skin
The skin of fire
I'm at the mercy of urges
You're my funeral dyre
