Decaying inside
I'm rotting away
In this solemn hour
I peel away
Redeem my aching soul
for I'm soon to meet my end
I feel it there
just around the bend.
This beast inside of me
clawing to get out of this cage
is foaming at the mouth
in all it's pent up rage.
Decaying inside
I'm rotting away
In this solemn hour
I peel away
I send out a prayer
lost among the roar of gun fire
these dark wishes cloud my mind
breaking free are my darkest desires
I cry out in pain as I am morphing
insanity is all that is left behind
and I have not one clear thought
in my overdrawn mind.
Decaying inside
I'm rotting away
In this solemn hour
I peel away

Decaying inside
I'm rotting away
In this solemn hour
I peel away
Redeem my aching soul
for I'm soon to meet my end
I feel it there
just around the bend.
This beast inside of me
clawing to get out of this cage
is foaming at the mouth
in all it's pent up rage.
Decaying inside
I'm rotting away
In this solemn hour
I peel away
I send out a prayer
lost among the roar of gun fire
these dark wishes cloud my mind
breaking free are my darkest desires
I cry out in pain as I am morphing
insanity is all that is left behind
and I have not one clear thought
in my overdrawn mind.
Decaying inside
I'm rotting away
In this solemn hour
I peel away
