[Verse 1]
I can feel it crawling from the inside
Creeping up and down my spine
It's twisting like a snake (Like a snake)
It's got its claws deep in my brain
And it's got its hooks
Underneath my skin, it's driving me insane
And I can't catch a break
[Chorus]
I'm throwing gasoline (Hey) on a fire
Smoke rising, the flames are getting higher
I gotta stop feeding the monster
Or it'll eat me alive, feel like Jekyll and Hyde
[Post-Chorus]
It'll eat me alive, alive, alive
It'll eat me alive, alive, alive
It'll eat me alive
[Verse 2]
Gougе out my eyes and put 'em in a jar
So I can see mysеlf and just how far
Things have gone
Take every thought into captivity (Captivity)
I do the things I would prefer not to
And I don't do the things that I know
That I ought to do
Flesh and spirit at war in me (War in me)
[Chorus]
I'm throwing gasoline (Hey) on a fire
Smoke rising, the flames are getting higher
I gotta stop feeding the monster
Or it'll eat me alive, feel like Jekyll and Hyde
[Post-Chorus]
It'll eat me alive, alive, alive
It'll eat me alive, alive, alive
It'll eat me alive
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
I'm throwing gasoline (Hey) on a fire
Smoke rising, the flames are getting higher
I gotta stop feeding the monster
Or it'll eat me alive, feel like Jekyll and Hyde
[Post-Chorus]
It'll eat me alive, alive, alive
It'll eat me alive, alive, alive
It'll eat me alive
