Carcass Songtext
von These Severed Hands

and who am i if i don′t enjoy the pain anymore
feel self conscious when i spill my guts on the stage floor
see if im cast as actress or overreacter
who will pull the strings i didn't factor
i almost forgot that this is what its all for

if i hide my voice till the day that i die
will anyone remember i was ever alive
watching the life i wanted pass me by
reach for a timeline that was never realized

longing for the memory of a version
of me that i could never be again
a twisted sickness that had settled in
and made a home under my skin
but my resolve was wearing thin
had to patch up all the holes i opened
slaughter the part that was hoping
to die on stage choking on moping
from cemetery dirt, new life always grows
one thing you can put on my gravestone


i
did what had to be done

i did what had to be done
even if it meant blowing out the sun
float in the dark with me darling
you′re the only one reminds me what i was
doesn't try to chase away my darkness

promise i try not to be heartless
rip it off my sleeve throw it back in my chest
still ive got to be cautious
every corner of this planet is godless
so forgive me for trying to find some solace
in the buried version of me's carcass
carcass


longing for the memory of a version
of me that i could never be again
a twisted sickness that had settled in
and made a home under my skin
but my resolve was wearing thin
i had to patch up all the holes i opened
slaughter the part that was hoping
to die on stage choking on moping
from cemetery dirt, new life always grows
one thing you can put on my gravestone
