Dead Man Stalking

(album: Better Luck Tomorrow - 2018)

I'm the cell and you're the cancer
The worst place I could look for answers
Feeding off me like a parasite
You've sucked my soul out from my insides
You're the noose around my neck
The cinder block chained to my leg
But after all you've put me through
I'll still crawl back to you

Take me high, hang me dry
Break me, I'll be fine
I don't want a new solution
I'll never change a thing

So take all you want from me
(Take anything you need)
Rip out a piece of me
(And leave me here to bleed)
Tear me open, pick my poison
Now I'm broken, you're the reason
Take all you want from me
(Take everything)

Well I'm sure you don't think of me
But rest assured you're still everything to me
And now I'm tearing apart at the seams
Why can't you see?

Take me high, hang me dry
Break me, I'll be fine
I don't want a new solution
I'll never change a thing

So take all you want from me
(Take anything you need)
Rip out a piece of me
(And leave me here to bleed)
Tear me open, pick my poison
Now I'm broken, you're the reason
Take all you want from me
(Take everything)

But at the end of the day
I'll still be screaming your name
You're my one and only so kill me slowly
I never thought this could happen to me

I would rip my heart out from my chest
If I thought there was even a chance you'd be impressed
But the truth is as ruthless as you've been
I can't seem to let you go

Twist the knife just to watch me squirm
You'll sit back and laugh as you watch the whole world burn
You're twisted, sick and sadistic
But despite how I've tried I can't get you out of my mind
