Living Monstrosity Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every day blows by in a world of corrupt addiction
With life comes pain, withdrawals, and deformation
Breaking the mould of human appearance
Contorting bodies with chemical interference

[Pre-Chorus]
The guilty one
Innocent she now cries
A life of hell
Better off to die
(Die, die)
(Die, die)

[Chorus]
Born without eyes
Hands, and half a brain
Being born addicted to cocaine


[Post-Chorus]
Living monstrosity
A freak for life they'll always be
Never knowing love or hate
Only pain the drug creates

[Instrumental Break]
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Some say she's naive
She's a stupid bitch
Some say to forgive
Guilty she should die

[Verse 2]
The beginning of the end begins at birth
Breeding masses of twisted screaming flesh
An example we should make out of these creators of misfortune
A serious crime that should not be forgiven

[Pre-Chorus]
The guilty one
Innocent she now cries
A life of hell
Better off to die
(Die, die)
(Die, die)

[Chorus]
Born without eyes
Hands, and half a brain
Being born addicted to cocaine
