i've got flies the size of birds
waiting for my vision to blur
discussing how they will eat my innards
and if it couldn't be more absurd
i've got a robin in my stomach pecking for worms
causing a stir
and he gets stronger
they'd love to know the way i taste
my mind would love to be erased
i've got flies the size of birds
waiting for my vision to blur
like i know it will
how does it feel to chew on glass
to know you'll always come in last
can't compensate with nails and tacks
so lay your head down in the grass and
tell me, how does it feel to chew on glass?
they are never quite asleep
just waiting
i'm calm, i'm cool, i am frustrated
there is no salvation in the pain inside
six days of observation and the robin
suspenseful irony when i'm sure i'll die anyway
hopeless, faithless, unhappy
every reason why these vermin will devour me
hernias erupting; from my mouth blood is gushing
i've seen the end i don't know why we try so hard
why we think we are a light in the dark
how does it feel to chew on glass
to know you'll always come in last
can't compensate with nails and tacks
so lay your head down in the grass and
tell me, how does it feel to chew on glass?
