Well I found you outside like a sunrise,
That melted my eyes from my skull.
As I turned into ash before for my sweet demise,
The end of me was so beautiful.
Well now you're stuck in my head like a love song,
That climbed to the top of the charts.
How the fuck can something be so right and so wrong?
All the wrong words but all the right parts.
(Staccato)
And you can sit there and tell me that I didn't try,
And I can honestly tell you that I never lied.
I can't stand this dark feeling, the shark eating me up inside.
Eating me alive
Eating me alive
Well I found you out there in the moonlight,
In your eyes there were diamonds like stars.
I was bound by your father, the jewel thief,
That night as you said he was still behind bars.
Now you're stuck in my head like a love song,
The words I can never forget.
As I sucked on your neck for way too long,
And drained you of every last drop you had left.
(Staccato)
And you can sit there and tell me that I didn't try,
And I can honestly tell you that I never lied.
I can't stand this dark feeling, the shark eating me up inside.
Eating me alive
Eating me alive
Here lies a homicidal story, sad but true.
The time has come and gone but I'd do anything for you.
(Faster, Smoother Rhythm)
And you can sit there and tell me that I didn't try,
And I can honestly tell you that I never lied.
I can't stand this dark feeling, the shark eating me up inside.
Eating me alive
Eating me alive
Eating me alive.
