Array ( [sid] => 12811 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Self Mutilation [time] => 2003-02-17 13:20:00 [hometext] => This song is about becoming so numb to the world, that pain is the only thing left to feel, and in that void, wanting the pain to be there all the time.... [bodytext] => Bite the nail
Rip back the flesh
The taste is sweet
When blood is fresh
It trickles down
Into my throat
Unto it's prize
I do devote
For it's the pain
That keeps me here
Shows I'm alive
Despite my fears
Kills the craving
In my soul
To bite your neck
And drink you whole

If vultures only hunt the dead
Then why do they circle my bed
Anxiety the bread I'm fed
Maybe it's all in my head

I'll eat myself alive
Rip flesh from bone this time
This pain is divine
It lets me know I'm still alive

My rotting kiss
Touch of decay
My cup of *****
My bed of hay
My empty seed
My shell of clay
Your dirty deeds
Left me this way
My rotting kiss
My cancer lung
My mouth of *****
My vomit tongue
My robot parts
My oozing wounds
My bleeding heart
Poked at by you

If vultures only hunt the dead
Then why do they circle my bed
Anxiety the bread I'm fed
Maybe it's all in my head

I'll eat myself alive
Rip flesh from bone this time
This pain is divine
It lets me know I'm still alive [comments] => 5 [counter] => 229 [topic] => 34 [informant] => Jason_Robert_Britt [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )
