There's almost nothing left

You eat my kind for breakfast

What did I expect?

To come here and find anyone?

Find open arms to greet me

And friends to feed me

I sicken myself so much

And you eat my kind for breakfast

You eat my kind

***

Whatever I fear the most is whatever I see before me

Whenever I let my guard down, whatever I was ignoring

Whatever I fear the most is whatever I see before me

Whatever I have been given, whatever I have been

***

Seeing myself this way

I am a monster I believe

And seeing is believing

Is there no doubt left

When I wake up I poison myself

And poison gives no appetite

I sicken myself so much

I sicken myself so

***

Did we expect these things to change

By waking up and suddenly there they are

And all I need's a starting place

And nothing ever seemed so hard...

***

Whatever I fear the most is whatever I see before me

Whenever I let my guard down, whatever I was ignoring

Whatever I fear the most is whatever I see before me

Whatever I have been given, whatever I have been
