Hell’s Itch Songtext
Flick the switch
Hell′s itch
Derma-glitch
Hell's itch
Bewitched
Hell′s itch
Perpetual twitch
Hell's itch
Why, why, why
When my nail glides
Through my epidermis
Does it feel so joyous?
The deeper the cut
The thicker the blood
Subcutaneous fat feels good like that
Dancing beneath my wafer-thin crust
Teasing me, taunting me
My unquenchable lust
If I only could locate this bug
Oozing under like a slug
I'd slice my skin to get within
Lacerate my own linchpin
Nominate my next of kin
Destroy myself with no chagrin
Find the source of this deep remorse
Buried deep inside me like a sunken horse
Rooted below in the innermost abyss
Is a fathomless unscratchable itch
Shed my skin if need be to suppress
The itch for it would fill me with glee
Whatever is this persistent yearn
To rip off my skin and stop the burn
Crawling tender temptations
Catacombs beneath the layers of hatching eggs
Thunder threads
Claws enthralled in pitted keratosis
Lacerations peeling paper thin
Barbecue skin
Deeper burying (wooh)
Flick the switch
Hell′s itch
Derma-glitch
Hell′s itch
Bewitched
Hell's itch
Perpetual twitch
Hell′s itch
Rising pitch
Hell's itch
Latent witch
Hell′s itch
Grisly stitch
Hell's itch
The old adage
Pain is easier to endure than an itch
Shed my skin if it need be to suppress
The itch would fill me with glee
Whatever is this persistent yearning
To rip off my skin and stop the burning
Crawling tender temptations
Catacombs beneath layers of hatching eggs
Thunder threads
Claws enthralled in pitted keratosis
Lacerations peeling paper thin
Barbecue skin
Deeper burying
Flick the switch
Hell′s itch
Derma-glitch
Hell's itch
Bewitched
Hell's itch
Perpetual twitch
Hell′s itch
Let the sun burn
Oh, my cells gurn
When the skin drips so, I sing the hell′s itch
Deep in the compost
Believe that the worm can still see the light
Oh, I sing the hell's itch
I sleep with the rat who′s kiss has set me free
Oh, I sing
Oh, I sing the hell's itch
Prick the ceramic
Bodily condom, oh yeah be gone
Oh, baby please be gone
The breeze on my flesh feels so fuckin′ good
Look at me now, Helen
Yeah, I'm finally red
Yeah, I′m finally red
Yeah, I'm finally red
Ooh, I'm finally red
Ooh, I′m finally red
Ooh, I′m finally red
Why, why, why
When my nail glides
Through my epidermis
Does it feel so joyous?
The deeper the cut
The thicker the blood
Subcutaneous fat hurts good like that
Dancing beneath my wafer-thin crust
Teasing me, taunting me
My unquenchable lust
If I only could locate this bug
Oozing under like a slug
I'd slice my skin to get within
Lacerate my own linchpin
Nominate my next of kin
Destroy myself with no chagrin
Find the source of this deep remorse
Buried deep inside me like a sunken horse
Rooted below in the innermost abyss
Is a fathomless unscratchable itch
Hell′s itch
Derma-glitch
Hell's itch
Bewitched
Hell′s itch
Perpetual twitch
Hell's itch
Why, why, why
When my nail glides

Does it feel so joyous?
