I wouldn't be angry if you just fucking cried Your tears would arouse me, refreshing my supply The suffering is fading, I scream into the sky Repulsion invades me, I say goodbye Digging deep inside of me Getting past this agony I can't seem to get away Another day rotting in vain I wouldn't be angry if things would stay the same You're fighting the torment that helps me feed my pain The suffering is fading, I scream into the sky Repulsion invades me, I say goodbye Digging deep inside of me Getting past this agony I can't seem to get away Another day rotting in vain I can't take this I can't f*ck this I can't fake this Digging deep inside of me Getting past this agony I can't seem to get away Another day rotting in Digging deep inside of me Getting past this agony I can't seem to get away Another day rotting in vain
