The Eternal - Self Inflicted

A million piercing eyes make you feel alive
yet your skin can't hide that your dead inside
shallow, broken & worthless to me
I look far beyond what you want me to see

Who left me out to die?
in an existence buried alive
I remember a time when I dreamed
I recall the hope in my eyes

Afraid of what you might find?
if you took a moment to look inside
hate, loathing & self rejection
behind those eyes it's a growing infection

Who left me on the outside?
where did we get lost along the way
I remember a time when it seemed
that all your wounds were self inflicted

it's seething / it's breeding
it's restricted / it's self inflicted

Who left me on the outside?
where did we get lost along the way
I remember a time when it seemed
that all your wounds were self inflicted
