Taking My Body Apart Assigned a final signified* Completed and defined Rip my throat and cut my hands Undo the body and break its sign
The judgment of god The judgment of the word A final claim that will inscribe All the meanings of the flesh
You'll find the terms of god You'll read the words of god You will suffocate Under the weight of god
Do not look for a response God's silence is all you'll find Your skin Is your Very own prison
Take my lungs out Take my heart out
I'll fly in the face of god I'll flood the heavens with my blood Cut my veins and splatter the walls I'll leave a mess for him to find
Will there ever be a word? Will there ever be a way to speak? Now that my body is empty Can one speak without organs?
You'll see there is nothing You'll learn there is no one You will be condemned As an organism
There is nothing outside the world Nothing written upon your heart Your faith, your Christ Is an affliction
Take my lungs out Take my heart out
Take all this away, let everything die Take my body apart Don't look to him as you die Tear my insides out Take all this away, let everything die Take my body apart Don't look to him as you die Tear my insides out
Somehow I am always left wanting I want to know if there is something Even if it means taking myself apart I'll begin at the throat and work my way down
Put aside each and every organ I am moving towards becoming-inhuman I will not be an organism I've had it with god, I am moving on
Take all this away, let everything die Take my body apart Don't look to him as you die Tear my insides out Take all this away, let everything die Take my body apart Don't look to him as you die Tear my insides out
