Darker With My Eyes Open


Whenever I need somebody
I always seem to hurt somebody

Could I be like Jesus Christ?
Loved but no one's lover
Upon your cross of faith in spite
Today is like no other

Air heavy with the smell of death
I feel no pleasure, I feel no pain
Distorted mind cuts the final breath
Sadistic smile on my killing face

Could I be like Jesus Christ?
Loved but no one's lover
Upon your cross of faith in spite
Today is like no other

Sometimes I feel I'd like to kill someone
Sometimes I feel I'd like to kill myself

Could I be like Jesus Christ?
Loved but no one's lover
Upon your cross of faith in spite
Today is like no other

Despair and hurt no longer strangers to me
It's not the right way but will set me free
And when I feel I'm to fill the emptiness
The devil laughs and throws it back in my face
