take this with you to my grave
i am the soul you cannot save

this darkened world I cannot not brave
i'm only alive when you're inside me

some things now you cannot learn
caused confusion caused concern

alone i'll watch this cigarette burn
i'm only alive when you're inside me

of you i no longer think
but of your blood i want to drink

and i can't open from this long blink
i'm only alive when your inside me

lower my coffin with your bitten hand
i'm sure my mother would understand

condemned to dirt and dust and land
i'm only alive when you're inside me

destiny is no longer my desire
i could not get you any higher

no man alive could put out this fire
i'm only alive when your inside me
