  • Dead inside!
    Revere a million prayers
    And draw me into your holiness
    But there's nothing there
    Light only shines from those who share
    Unleash a million drones
    Confine me then erase me babe
    Do you have no soul?
    It's like it died long ago

    Your lips feel warm to the touch
    You can bring me back to life
    On the outside you're ablaze and alive
    But you're dead inside!

    You're free to touch the sky
    Whilst I am crushed and pulverized
    Because you need control
    Now I'm the one who's letting go
    You like to give an inch
    Whilst I am giving infinity
    But now I've got nothing left
    You have no cares and I'm bereft

    Your skin feels warm to caress
    I see magic in your eyes
    On the outside you're ablaze and alive
    But you're dead inside!

    Feel me now, hold me please
    I need you to see who I am
    Open up to me, stop hiding from me
    It's hurting babe
    Only you can stop the pain
    Don't leave me out in the cold
    Don't leave me out to die
    I gave you everything
    I can't give you anymore
    Now I've become just like you

    My lips feel warm to the touch
    My words seem so alive
    My skin is warm to caress
    I'll control and hypnotize
    You've taught me to lie without a trace
    And to kill with no remorse
    On the outside I'm the greatest guy
    Now I'm dead inside! Writer/s: MATTHEW JAMES BELLAMY
