lyrics

Nothing was beautiful and everything hurt.
My body is a body like yours, skin and bones, or so I'm told.
My body is a body like yours, filled with sores, unbeauty and scorn.
I just want to be disembodied.
I don't want to be so fucking ugly.
No one can see what's real from what's me.
There's no mirror stage when our flesh decays.
No skin, no face, no cage left to mutilate.
I just want to be disembodied.
I don't want to be so fucking ugly.
I want to break the symmetry that confines us.
I want to break the symmetry that defines us.
I want to break the symmetry that controls us.
I want to break the symmetry that destroys us.
And be set free.
Erase my face. Erase my name
I just want to be disembodied.
I don't want to be so fucking ugly.
No one can see what's real from what's me.
No one can see that we are not the same.
