Swallow People Whole Lyrics

From the manger to the morgue

Strangers are born and reborn

Giving birth to the wages of sin...

and claiming it came from within



Within me there's a gaping hole

And it seems I'm last to know

And no one, or thing, can fill this empty space

that I've been pacing in



I fell in love with an empty place

But I want change

But I won't change



I can't feel a thing

The pins and needles sing...



"I can say it

But I won't mean a thing

Because I know you'll fall for

Each and every pretty word I sing."



Spirits spin me around once more

Sin if you sing the overture

That lulls me back to sleep

I swear I'm yours to keep

Consumed with consuming

And soon I'll Swallow people whole

I'll have back what strangers stole



If I can't find my happiness

I'll soon devour yours

I'll sing your weary head to rest

With my overture

Because I fell in love with that empty place

But I want yours

But I want yours



For it I fell

For it I fell so fast

For it I fell

For it I fell so hard

For it I fell

For it I fell so fast

For it I fell, I fell for it



We lose ourselves once more
