Everything about this is saving you and shaping you to be a better man
You've got this far, and now I've got to let you go, but I don't know if I can
Oh, No! That look in his eyes again. Wet palms from the sins he's about to commit
Commitment can't be his kiss of death. Eyes closed. He's letting in all of his demons
The thought of being anyone else - it puts me at ease
So I'm becoming someone else to leave it all behind
Barren valleys occupy my guts. I can't quite seem to sew them shut
They're dry and empty. I'm dry-heaving nothing
Oh, I can't seem to throw up all these butterflies biting away at my bellyside
They once flew just like innocent doves
But now they're parasites that bite me from the inside out
Oh, No! It's like swallowing acid rain
One dose won't suffocate my passage ways
So I'll drink my liver dry and kill everything that haunts me inside
We were just kids, and no one knew that it'd ever come to this
I thought you were consumed by childhood blues. Now it's come to this
I wish I could have done something to soothe your wounds
Instead you let the demons get the best of you
Come with me, and I'll show you a way out
We'll run away from all the animals biting away my insides - eating me alive
