Lyrics House Of Lies - Convictions

House Of Lies

How can I become a man
A man of God
When in my mind I’m a man of a million lovers?
All my secrets kept deep beneath the covers
My eyes twitch and twist
Oh, what a mess my portrait has become
What will I become?
What will I become?
My desire for love is tainted
How am I the picture you painted?
My canvas is nothing
My colors are disgusting
It’s haunting me
I’m so terrified that I won’t break free
It follows me, it follows me
These earthly addictions are consuming me
Corruption corrodes my true reflections
What kind of gentleman possesses these intentions
To hide these filthy afflictions?
Will I ever look at a woman in pure thought again
Or will I fulfill these slutty fantasies in my head?
Am I imprisoned in this never ending sin?
Free me from my lust
Restore my innocence
Sex sells!
I was born into a world of sin
Sex sells!
Predestined to let these voices in
It’s haunting me
I’m so terrified that I won’t break free
It follows me, it follows me
These earthly addictions are consuming me
It’s following me to the point of breaking
My rotting soul is Yours for the taking
She was my home
The house of lust kept me warm at night but
You pry open my eyes
The house of lust was a house of lies
She was my home
The house of lust kept me warm at night but
You pry open my eyes
The house of lust was a house of lies
I lost myself walking to a home that was burnt down years ago
Don’t let me wither away
Don’t let me wither away
It’s haunting me
I’m so terrified that I won’t break free
It follows me, it follows me
These earthly addictions are consuming me
It’s following me to the point of breaking
My rotting soul is Yours for the taking
What will I become?
