The Leper Lyrics
Embarrassed to be alive
Sit with my life, open wide
Your stare is forcing my face open
A leper crumbling, never joking
Who should I believe
Safest to wallow in my own esteem
Afraid, stick my neck out
Knowing the day has drawn
I'm a leper
Scared beyond this feeling
I dare to escape
A leper
Doomed to this
My life is chosen to rape
Embarrassed to be alive
Sit with my life open wide
Your stare is forcing my face open
A leper crumbling never joking
I'm a leper
Scared beyond this feeling
I dare to escape
A leper
Doomed to this
My life is chosen to rape
[solo]
I'm a leper
Leper
Leper
Sit with my life, open wide
Your stare is forcing my face open
A leper crumbling, never joking
Who should I believe
Afraid, stick my neck out
Knowing the day has drawn
Scared beyond this feeling
I dare to escape
Doomed to this
My life is chosen to rape
Sit with my life open wide
Your stare is forcing my face open
A leper crumbling never joking
I'm a leper
Scared beyond this feeling
I dare to escape
Doomed to this
My life is chosen to rape
Leper
Leper

Instead of "Knowing the day has drawn" I think hes saying "Knowing it will get hacked off"
It sounds like someone who has a very shitty life, kinda reminds me of Longview
He uses leprosy as a metaphor for his life, with particular reference to self esteem I think
