Is it human?
Fingernails digging deep into the flesh
Ripping the skin, reaching the flesh
I need to know
I have to find out
Teeth ripping flesh off bones
Reaching what's underneath
I have to find out
I cant rest 'till I do
Knife plunging deep in my torso
Hand reaching in to feel
I can't rest till I do
I will never rest till I do
What will I find inside this cavity
Something human? or pure emptiness
I will never rest 'till I do
Its now or never
Hand reaching deep inside, bearing the pain
Fingers wrapping around fleshy,beating organ
Does this mean I'm human
Or it's just a tool keeping me alive
The thumping reverberates all over my body
Slowing down to an empty silence
I guess it did keep me alive
But was I human? I guess I'll never know now
Ripping the skin, reaching the flesh
I need to know
I have to find out
Teeth ripping flesh off bones
Reaching what's underneath
I have to find out
I cant rest 'till I do
Knife plunging deep in my torso
Hand reaching in to feel
I can't rest till I do
I will never rest till I do
What will I find inside this cavity
Something human? or pure emptiness
I will never rest 'till I do
Its now or never
Hand reaching deep inside, bearing the pain
Fingers wrapping around fleshy,beating organ
Does this mean I'm human
Or it's just a tool keeping me alive
The thumping reverberates all over my body
Slowing down to an empty silence
I guess it did keep me alive
But was I human? I guess I'll never know now
