It took so long to remember just what happened.
I was so young and vestal then,
you know it hurt me,
but I'm breathing so I guess I'm still alive
even if signs seem to tell me otherwise.
I've got my hands bound,
my head down, my eyes closed,
and my throat wide open.
Do unto others, what has been done to me,
Do unto others, what has been done to you?
I'm treading water,
I need to sleep a while.
My lamb and martyr, you look so precious.
Won't you come on up closer,
close enough so I can smell you.
I need you to feel this,
I can't stand to burn too long.
Release in sodomy.
Oh, for one sweet moment I am whole.
Do unto you now, what has been done to me,
Do unto you now, what has been done?
You're breathing so I guess you're still alive
even if signs seem to tell me otherwise.
Won't you come on a bit closer,
close enough so I can smell you.
I need you to feel this.
I need this to make me whole.
Release in sodomy.
For I am your witness and
blood and flesh can be trusted.(X2)
And only this one holy medium brings me peace of mind.
Got your hands bound, your head down,
your eyes closed.
You look so precious now.
( Show me something
Thought I could make it end
Thought I could wash the stains away
Thought I could break the circle if I
Slipped right into your skin
So sweet was your surrender
We have become one
I have become my terror
And you my precious lamb and martyr.) *
I have found some kind of temporary sanity in this
shit, blood, and cum on my hands.
I've...come...round...full circle.
My lamb and martyr, this will be over, soon.
You look so precious.(X4)
You look so precious, now,
You look so precious...

Review about Prison Sex devil raping him up the ass? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/1/09
why do i doubt this as he doesn't like god, if you had half a brain you would realize a lot of his songs are about other things and questioning life, also in Judith - A Perfect Circle, he says OUTRIGHT FUCK YOUR GOD. i for some reason think that this song has nothing to do with the "devil" and "god" =
ok i had to ptu some input whoever it was that says maynard write this song is an illiterate retard and knows nothing. . . .so i scarred mother.maynard move to live with his father at the age of 13 and descibes it as "the best move he ever made" rape?. yes Reviewer: matty is write prison sex is about abuse and life braking you down and the constant circles we as humans put our selfs in.its an excelent song and like most tool songs you just need to listen and think a little harded
and not just go with the obviouse
In my mind i would have to say that prison sex is about, yes abuse, but in turn being human. Being broken down to to basic human substances. Being burdaned by having to shit, wanting sex, being hurt anough to bleed. No matter how hard you try to break from these things and better yourself as a soul more so than ahuman, you are brought back down by these basic things.
Scared Mom & The Song | Reviewer: Cannibal_Lovely | 9/22/09
I'm pretty sure we're all clear now on the fact that this song isn't actually about taking it up the ass in a prison from some dude. It's been stated thirty times. Can we please shut up now?
And since this 'scared mother' doesn't have a registered account, I think it's safe to assume she pretty much made her comment and left. So can we stop bitching about that too?
I was pretty irritated by what she said too, but really.
relevance to me | Reviewer: random guy | 9/1/09
ya this song is just what the band is...a tool...a tool for people who have been abused in any way..sexually...mentally...or even bullied...i remember when people used to bully me i would innately find the need bully someone else to "be my lamb and martyr" (thankfully im out of that circle)...ive not been sexually abused so the song is not relevant to me in that sense but is a sort of an eyeopener...but it apllies to me in the sense of getting bullied...so yes i completely agree, this song is a tool which you can apply in your life to maybe not always to make it better....but definitely to better comprehend and understand yourself
P.S. concerned mom.....please grow a brain
makin a point | Reviewer: nubbsalad | 8/28/09
Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/25/09.. haha really a tie into parabol/parabola? you do know the lateralus was released 2 albums later.. this song is about getting butt-raped by the devil and the only thing thats keeps him together is the thought of god saving him hahah.. listen to the song dont dig too deep or youre just another philosopher
What its about | Reviewer: Jon | 8/26/09
In an interview with MTV Maynard had said this song was about the cycles of abuse and how we constantly fall in to them. Not just how, as the lyrics state, a man who was raped as a child and is raping some one as an adult. Prison Sex is only an example of the cycles of abuse we human beings find ourselves in, Maynard and the rest of Tool just selected it to be the title. THERE, now its settled
Your the man | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/6/09
who ever wrote the excerpt on 7-25-09 and jonas brothers, i highly doubt you know anything of what you talk about. the songs are almost 7 years apart and the lyrics have nothing to do with each other. if you were a true fan you would know what creative reasoning behind lateralus is about
I do believe this song is about rape as a child. Always makes me get chills when I listen, the verses just tear me open.
"It took so long to remember just what happened. I was so young and vestal then, you know it hurt me,"
"I have found some kind of temporary sanity in this shit, blood, and cum on my hands. "
You're all wrong | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/25/09
Fucking this song is not about rape, or losing control.
It's obviously a tie into Parabol/Parabola. If you were true Tool fans you would of Known this fucking idiots. God go listen to your Jonas brothers you are not fooling anyone.
