This song is cool, very fast guitar. I'm not sure, if it
is 100% correct but I know the fiorst part is. There is
really only two different guitar riffs in this song, a chorus
and a riff inbetween verses.
Tuning...

The words...
You seduced me
Lonely in your hell
Naked, Hungry
I crawl into your cell
A virtual drugstore is piled on your bed
I can't resist with your tounge inside my head
How can everything be justified by you?
How can everything be justified by you?
You get off on watching me bleed
You get off on feeding my disease
This time will be perfect you explain
But your tounge's as deadly as a needle through my vein
How can everything be justified by you?
How can my demise be justified by you?
I'm so tired of living for your touch
I'm so tired of needing you so much
How can everything be justified by you?
How can everything be justified by you?
How can everything be justified by you?
How can my demise be justified by you?
When did I decide to be crucified by you?
How can everything be justified by you?
By you...

| I think this song is him comparing a girl to a drug addiction. You seduced me lonely in your hell Naked, hungry I crawl into your cell A virtual drugstore is piled on your bed I can't resist with your tongue inside my head How can everything be justified by you? How can everything be justified by you? ( He trusts her and She seduces him while he is having a weak moment. He can't resisit her temptation. She probably does a lot of drugs and he succumbs to them as well beacuse they are also his weakness, but he could never resist them... for his lust for her is too strong. She tries to justify this, but he can't see the justification in destroying himself for her) You get off on watching me bleed You get off on feeding me disease This time will be perfect you explain Your tongue is deadly as a needle through my vein ( He feels like her sickness goes so far as to make her seem like she's actually getting off on watching his destruction , like she feeds on the power it has over him. When he questions it, she tries to convince him that this time it will be better [perhaps the drug experience or just the relationship] but he knows that she is as bad for him as any drug he's ever put in his system) I'm so tired of living for your touch I'm so tired of needing you so much How can everything be justified by you? How can everything be justified by you? How can everything be justified by you? How can my demise be justified by you? When did I decide to be crucified by you? How can everything be justified by you? By you... (He's tired of the control she has over him. He's tired of the false justifications she always preaches to him. He wants to know how she got permission to destroy his well being. He knows he let it happen, but he can't deny the shear audacity of her obvious disrespect for them both.) | |

| I think it's about how anti-depressants control his life, and how "eveyrthing is justified" by them. "You get off by watching me bleed" is what the drug looks to prevent, probibly to stop cutting. It could also be about how these drugs are harmfull, I know friends who take pills for depression, but they wake up 4 at night walking around and rambling. Scary stuff, but a great, great song. | |
