I think I'm rotting on the inside
way down deep inside my soul
I've built this little coffin that I live in every day
I peek out every day or so to see those ghosts at play
I've got my knife right by my side
I keep it warm, I hold the blade
I want to keep watch, keep hold
for when they come to take my soul away
I've got this fear living inside me
it keeps me crippled and cold
like a child I lie frozen
I hope these arms won't reach out and take hold
there's blood on my face it keeps me warm at night
