This is the greasy rope The broken wreck I see the twisted hope strung around your neck This hopeless dream This sordid stream I whisper once again praying for the end Your secret skin can't hide your shame Your secret skin will shelter me Your secret skin will smell of me Your secret skin can't hide your name Sin Sex & Salvation Once more obey the bloody fist Once more betrayed by your open wrist One more rusty nail a sordid crime One more spreading stain upon you shrine Once more obey this bloody fist Betray your open bloody wrist One rusty nail one sordid crime The spreading stain upon your shrine
