I've got your hurt upon my lips
Choke on your words, ventriloquist
Roll back my eyes, feed me the lines
Take all that you want from me
Touch my every open wound
To meet your every broken need
My sweet release, come to me
I know that you'll never let go
Once you're in control
You wave your cross above my head
Like I'm a puppet on your thread
Like a voodoo child, paint me a smile
Then hang me up on a tangled string
My hips will twist at your fingertips
But you know it don't mean anything
My sweet release, come to me
I know that you'll never let go
Once you're in control
I can't meet your needs or fulfil your prophecies
I can't meet your needs or fulfil my promises
My sweet release, come to me
