Lyrics
I am a bastard son!
Conceived of a hundred men,
now I'm the chosen one.
Back, looking back!
Father William called me Johnny
but my mother called me Jack.
I scream out to you!
As I see them take you,
Hell, it put me through.
You gave me life then
ripped out my emotion
and replaced it with a knife.
I cut you once, I cut you twice,
you're my midnight sacrifice.
You shamed me, you shame God,
you scream my name, now you're gone.
I've seen the rain wash
over you a thousand times.
Your flesh summons me,
God knows why.
Repent your sins to me!
Now you're no different now!
Still the same, the Devil's Whore,
Lilith on the prowl.
I've got something for you!
I know what real pain is
and you will too!
I cut you once, I cut you twice,
you're my midnight sacrifice.
You shamed me, you shame God,
you scream my name, now you're gone.
Conceived of a hundred men,
now I'm the chosen one.
Back, looking back!
Father William called me Johnny
but my mother called me Jack.
I scream out to you!
As I see them take you,
Hell, it put me through.
You gave me life then
ripped out my emotion
and replaced it with a knife.
I cut you once, I cut you twice,
you're my midnight sacrifice.
You shamed me, you shame God,
you scream my name, now you're gone.
I've seen the rain wash
over you a thousand times.
Your flesh summons me,
God knows why.
Repent your sins to me!
Now you're no different now!
Still the same, the Devil's Whore,
Lilith on the prowl.
I've got something for you!
I know what real pain is
and you will too!
I cut you once, I cut you twice,
you're my midnight sacrifice.
You shamed me, you shame God,
you scream my name, now you're gone.
