Eat Me Alive

I fear nothing
For I feel nothing at all
Staring off the edge but I’ll tell you I’m fine
It’s getting dark out there’s no need to hide
Just how good the end really looks sometimes
If hope still lives out there it’s so hard for us to find

Nowhere feels safe
The hallways they scream
Nothing stops the pain
I can’t stand it inside of my brain
Eat me alive

I’ve seen death face to face
And I did not run away

Held captive by my birth but i’ll tell you i’m fine
My head’s so deranged there’s no way to hide
Just how good the end really looks sometimes
If hope still lives out there it’s so hard for us to find

Nowhere feels safe
The hallways they scream
Nothing stops the pain
I can’t stand it inside of my brain
Eat me alive

I’ve looked into the abyss
And I’ve seen death face to face
I’ve watched as he took every delicate life away
And at last when he came for me
I did not run
I greeted him
Quietly

And in the lifeless air he asked me
Why there was no fear left behind my sunken eyes
He spoke of how he had visited me many times
Watching over each waking nightmare
Waiting
I smiled
Peering into his dead yellow eyes
There’s nothing the end can bring
That could haunt me more than this life
And there are no devils in hell
They live in my mind
Awake I am caged
In dreams I survive
