Lyrics

[Verse 1] I have got a secret Hidden behind my eyes A violation, tragedy Of violence, hate, and lies Locked deep within my chamber Dark recesses of my mind A tribute to insanity Through hours, days, and time [Chorus] Rotten to the core Rotten to the core Rotten to the core Rotten to the core [Guitar Solo] [Verse 2] Recite the testimonial Truth and nothing more Accusations, nominal Fall rotten to the core So, take a look, read a book Reach a new plateau But stain the soul, a life you took You know not what I know [Chorus] Rotten to the core Rotten to the core Rotten to the core Rotten to the core [Interlude] [Bridge] Misguided youth, the bitter truth Nothing left to chance Fallen angel seeking Adventure, new romance How dare you touch? You take the soul Of one so pure, so white The violation, tragedy Took all she had that night [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Rotten to the core Rotten to the core Rotten to the core Rotten to the core [Verse 3] I have got a secret Hidden behind my eyes A violation, tragedy Of violence, hate, and lies Recite the testimonial Truth and nothing more Accusations, nominal Fall rotten to the core [Chorus] Rotten to the core Rotten to the core Rotten to the core Rotten to the core To the core [Outro] Rot, rot, rot, rot, rot Rot, rot, rot, rot, rotten, rotten Rot to the core
