In this hole, that is me The dead are rolling over In this hole, thickening Dirt shoveled over shoulders I feel into me, so overwhelmed All this pressures sent arising My life overturned, unfair the despair All these scars keep ripping open Peel me, from the skin Tear me, from the rind Does it make you happy now? Tear me, from the bone Tear me, from myself Are you feeling happy now? In this hole, that is me A life that's growing feeble In this hole, so limiting The sun that's settle darkens Buried underneath, hands slip off the wheel Internal pathways to contention Peel me, from the skin Tear me, from the rind Does it make you happy now? Tear me, from the bone Tear me, from myself Are you feeling happy now? Happy? Happy? Are you feeling happy? In this hole, that is me Left with a heart exhausted What's my release what sets me free Do you pull me up just to push me down again Peel me, from the skin Tear me, from the rind Does it make you happy now? Tear me, from the bone Tear me, from myself Are you feeling happy now? Peel me, from the skin Tear me, from the rind Does it make you happy now? Tear me, from the bone Tear me, from myself Are you feeling happy now? Does it make you happy? Are you feeling happy? Are you fucking happy now that I'm lost left with nothing Does it make you happy? Are you feeling happy? Are you fucking happy now that I'm lost left with nothing
