Survivin' on Sin - New Song Progress

Take me to Babylon,
I'll settle in there, forget the Son.
I'll live my life with the blinds--
completely shut down but doin' fine.
I'll sink in
I'm thinkin
I am survivin' on sin.

I've heard I'll get to know the mistress:
"She's always talkin', lying listless.
She'll drink the wine until she goes down.
Pale beneath purple, everyone knows about her lines."
I'm cheatin'
I'm breathin'
I am survivin' on sin

There is no place like the guillotine,
all said and seen.
There is no place like the guillotine--
sharp, shine, and sheen.

It's all I've ever known--
when this sentence ends I'll be at home.
'Cause then I'll find my head
and it'll be wearin' the devil's red sign.
I need it
I bleed it
I am survivin' on sin

There is no place like the guillotine,
all said and seen.
There is no place like the guillotine--
sharp, shine, and sheen.
