EATING ME AWAY
It's eating me away
I said to God
It's rotting in my mind
It's like a cancer
Is there anything, anything at all to numb
The nothingness
I need a reason to breathe
It's eating me away
Save me from my rage
And my humanity
I'm more nothing than being
Is this my legacy
Feel it eating me away
Yeah, yeah…
Eating me away
It nibbles at my brain
The question of my existance
And the matter of pain
I shake my fist, I shake my fist
At the cosmos and my insignificance
I need a reason to breathe
It's eating me away
All that I am, all that I want, all that I lack
Come on and save me
All that I am, all that I want, all that I lack
Come on and save me
CHORUS
All that I am, all that I want, all that I lack
Come on and save me
All that I am, all that I want, all that I lack
Come on and save me
Its eating me away
CHORUS
