Living in fear because the world is cold
And hope might be coming but you never know.
There are dead end streets around every turn.
And a road map too beaten up, torn, and burnt to read.
Dead weight carried on for miles and miles.
And someones telling jokes but you never smile,
As the rows of tombstone houses pass you by.
And I say, you say, we say change.
But we all know just what they say.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
They just stay the same.
This time its eating me alive.
This time its eating me alive.
This time its eating me alive.
Its a long cold winter in the dead of night.
And the candidates are saying they can make it right.
And well buy almost anything that they sell.
Drop dead headlights coming down the road.
And were frozen blind
Believing in a heart of gold
That will swoop right in and save us from our sins.
Save us from our sins.
This time its eating me alive.
This time its eating me alive
This time its eating me alive.
This time its eating me alive
This time its eating me alive.
This time its eating me alive
This time its eating me alive.
This time its eating me alive
This time…
Im a bug on its back kicking legs in the air
On a sidewalk in a city somewhere
Seconds from thundering steps and ten ton shoes.
Im a bug on its back kicking legs in the air
On a sidewalk in a city somewhere
Seconds from thundering steps and ten ton shoes.
Im a bug on its back kicking legs in the air
This time its eating me alive
On a sidewalk in a city somewhere
This time its eating me alive
Seconds from thundering steps and ten ton shoes.
This time its eating me alive
Im a bug on its back kicking legs in the air
This time its eating me alive
On a sidewalk in a city somewhere
This time its eating me alive
Seconds from thundering steps and ten ton shoes.
This time its eating me alive
