My heart is an animal
Stuck in its rib cage
Thrashing at the bars
Till i break a bone
My insides come out
As they penetrate the skin
This hatred and rage
Has left me cracked and alone
My brain is a time bomb connected to my heart
Barbed wires like life lines
Keep me from falling apart
Everything left of me, all i ever knew
Nothing but a memory since the time bomb blew

Has left me cracked and alone
My brain is a time bomb connected to my heart
Barbed wires like life lines
Keep me from falling apart
Everything left of me, all i ever knew
Nothing but a memory since the time bomb blew
