lyrics

I sold them my blood
they put me on hold
my blood was no good
they wanted my gold
I bought back the blood
and then I was told
they wanted more blood
they put me on hold

this stuff is so good
the taste is insane
we're starved and we're craving it
all of the time
you hate it, you love it
enslaved by the worm
ashamed of it, maimed by it,
can’t take the pain

They put me on hold
I bartered my heart
to pay off the blood
I parted with
to buy back the gold
to farm out more blood
my blood was no good
they put me on hold

this stuff is so good
the taste is insane
we're starved and we're craving it
all of the time
the need feeds the need
the shame makes more shame
The brain is a reptile
the slave runs the game

And this is the wound
and this is the brand
the bank account, fingerprint
retina, hand
the voice in your head,
the things the voice said
the part of you, heart of you
that wants you dead

this stuff is so good
the taste is insane
we're starved and we're craving it
all of the time
the need feeds the need
the shame makes more shame
the brain is a reptile
the slave runs the game
machines crunch the numbers
numbers, machines
the one and the zero
the dope and the meme

And this is the hit
you asked us for it
it’s what you wanted, man
this is the hit
