Big Bite

Get ripe as I'm rotting Stuck on the highway Killing time and space Think I'm better forgotten Than hated in any way Take a big bite, swallow it whole Let the pit grow in my stomach And if I can help it Hold the pain forever I can feel myself Over my shoulder Expecting me to crash and burn Or something worse Running in circles around my face Wasting away to the sound of my own voice Metal on metal Shocking me conscious I can taste the dirt on the back of my teeth I know what I want To heal and be healed To watch it all burn And finally be still Take a big bite, swallow it whole Let the pit grow in my stomach And if I can help it Hold the pain forever I can feel myself Over my shoulder Expecting me to crash and burn Or something worse I know what I want To heal and be healed To watch it all burn And finally be Let the bugs bite Let the girls fight Let the boys fight harder Let the bugs bite Let the girls fight Let the boys fight harder Let the bugs bite (I can't feel myself) Let the girls fight Let the boys fight harder (over my shoulder) Let the bugs bite (expecting me to) Let the girls fight (crash and burn) Let the boys fight harder (or something worse)
