Songtext Eating me alive Alkaline Trio

Eating me alive

I found you outside like a sunrise.
It melted my eyes from my skull.
As I turned into ash before my sweet demise,
The end of me was so beautiful.
Now you're stuck in my head like a lovesong
That climbed to the top of the charts.
How the fuck could something be so right and so wrong?
All the wrong words but all the right parts.

You can't sit there and tell me that I didn't try
And I can honestly tell you that I never lied.
I can't stand this dark feeling,
This shark eating me up inside.
Eating me alive.
Eating me alive.

Well, I found you out there in the moonlight.
In your eyes, there were diamonds like stars.
I was bound by your father that you'd meet that night
As you said he was still behind bars.
Now you're stuck in my head like a lovesong,
The words I can never forget
As he sucked on your neck, pulling too long
And drained you of every last job you had left.

You can't sit there and tell me that I didn't try
And I can honestly tell you that I never lied.
I can't stand this dark feeling,
This shark eating me up inside.
Eating me alive.
Eating me alive.

Here lies a homicidal story, sad but true.
The time has come and gone but I'd do anything for you.

You can't sit there and tell me that I didn't try
And I can honestly tell you that I never lied.
I can't stand this dark feeling,
This shark eating me up inside.
Eating me alive.
Eating me alive.
Eating me alive.
