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)
