It looks out from the inside
Takes my life for its own life
Plays on my insecurities
Makes me rage
Leaves my mind in a dark place
Makes me hate my existence
Death is alive
Death is alive

It wants me to fail
It wants me to fucking die
It laughs in the face

Scars my flesh with its own mark
Hear the words through the television
There's no relief
There's no rest
Lost my hold on reality
There's no hope
Fear and despair surround me

It wants me to fail
It wants me to fucking die
It laughs in the face of god
It wants me to be the same

The body of Christ compels you out
So kill me or leave me now
I can't stay in the shadow anymore
Get the fuck out

There's no face on the scarecrow
How the fuck does it watch me
You cant fix this with medication
It is poisoning me
Poisoning me
I am alone
Yet not alone

Kill the master
Yet the master has become the slave
It is death
Death

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
