Within Destruction - Self-Hatred Lyrics

I need to hurt to feed my sanity
I need to bleed to feel alive
I need to hurt to feed my sanity
I need to bleed to feel alive

Self-hatred burned into my mind
My thoughts are fuelled with rage and delusions

I need to hurt to feed my sanity
I need to bleed

All these visions frying my perception of reality
Can’t distinguish apparitions from the real world
Losing all sense of moral control
I slit my wrist to feel alive once more

The euphoria bursts through the veins
My heart is burning can you hear it beat
Streams of pleasant warmth run down my hands
I cleanse my face covered in my own decaying blood

I need to hurt to feed my sanity
I need to bleed to feel alive
I need to hurt to feed my sanity
I need to bleed to feel alive

One last time I close my eyes as darkness fills the room
A single exhalation marks the passing of my soul
Finally I am free from the clutches of this conscience
No more suffering in this shell of devastation

I need to hurt to feed my sanity
I need to bleed to feel alive
I need to hurt to feed my sanity
I need to bleed to feel alive
