"Tapestry Of Scars" lyrics - AUTOPSY

AUTOPSY
"Tapestry Of Scars"

The razor slid across my skin
A crimson kiss, a decoration
I liked the way the red leaked out
That day my new life did begin

A masochist in others' words
But they don't hear what I have heard
Sights of release from plasma trails
Viscous patterns in vivid detail

Carving symbols slow and deep
Separating flesh to fucking seep
When I cut my soul's revealed
Clean is ugly, only scars are real
Only scars are real

Jigsaw scalping
Healing, scabbing
New lacerations
Picking, stabbing

Fucking stabbing
And stabbing
Stabbing

Rivers of blood
Infinite cuts
Surfaces covered
It's never enough
Rivers of blood
Infinite cuts
Surfaces covered
It's never enough

Rivers of blood
Infinite cuts
Surfaces covered
It's never enough
Rivers of blood
Infinite cuts
Surfaces covered
It's never enough

Fingerprints
Slowly erased
Grind them off
Without a trace

I have become
A human sore
A work of art
Forevermore
I hone my craft
With deft precision
The flaying knife
Is my religion
