Eating Me Alive by Alkaline Trio Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I found you outside like a sunrise
That melted my eyes from my skull
As I turned into ash before my sweet demise
The end of me was so beautiful
And now you're stuck in my head like a love song
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

[Chorus]
And 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

[Verse 2]
Well, I found you out there in the moonlight
In your eyes, there were diamonds like stars
I was bound by your father, the jewel thief, that night
As you said, he was still behind bars
Now you're stuck in my head like a love song
The words I can never forget
As I sucked on your neck for way too long
And drained you of every last drop you had left
[Chorus]
And 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

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

[Chorus]
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
