Skinny Puppy - Smothered Hope Lyrics

Withered rope you hang what's
Empty can't remain to put it simply
In time cry the hollow words
To sing with false disguise
Smothered hope fly from sorrow
For a new divine tomorrow

I just don't want to know anymore
Life shifts up and down
Everybody knows it's wrong
Why don't you care? Now do it seem fair?
It's not in the rhyme or reason
So it goes with every season crawl to
Top fall through bottom

First hand love is really rotten
Slice of life find what's plenty
Inch towards a sanctuary
Light with me inside the womb

I know everyone everybody knows it's me
It's my voice, my voice cries out
Obscenity, sightless eye regard
My past sometimes it should
I just don't want to know anymore
