lyrics

They said someday I'd find the one
They said to never give in
To that despair every time I come undone
When reality kicks in.

That syringe that perforates to the bone
When another illusion leaves me all alone
She could never be a part of me
And she'll never, ever want to be

I let her into my world when I proselytized
Let her know her place in my mind's eye...

Once we had bonded, I knew she absconded
Maintaining false fondness so far away
But she never left, you see
Trapped in my fantasy
Idealized...and there to stay.

(Chorus 1):
Who needs anybody when you've got imagination?
All your troubles can be forgotten through masturbation
I don't need you, bitch, you see
You're just another stain to be
And it's time...to rub another one out!

I can never touch her
I know it'll never be true
But it's okay; if you only knew
About the deviant fantasies I have about you.

I may be a lonely man
But I got what I need
With no more heart's blood left to bleed
True love is officially obsolete.

She does everything that I ever wanted her to do
She says all the things that I always wanted her to say
They can never hope to appeal to me
They all end up the same kind of grotesquery...

So many errors to rectify
I got a mind to objectify
I take a look at your face and embrace the lie
I can keep you love alive...in my troubled mind.

(Chorus 2):
Why bother to connect with those you'll never understand?
Don't you know that the cure for loneliness is in your hands?
I don't need you, bitch, you see
You're just another stain-to-be
And it's time...to rub another one out!

People wonder why I never feel jealousy
Because she will always be a slave to me
I got myself an eternal supply
Their aesthetics are pathetic in reality.

So many scenes and extremes to choose from
Sometimes I can't believe the monster I've become
Her place is away from me
And the horrid, debauched fantasies I've spun.
