Eating Me Alive

Recently I did something wrong.

Terribly wrong.

I knew it was wrong from the start.

But I couldn't help but to ignore my moral conscience and to just go forward.

Now the guilt settles in.

And it is eating me alive...

Eating Me Alive

Words and Music by Maksim Markusevich

My conscience tells me so,

But I refused to admit,

I didn't want to let go,

But it's eating away at me, bit by bit...

I thought I've made a promise,

But how could my heart chose to refuse,

Now I'm in such a big crisis,

I know I have to pay my dues...

Digging deep,

Deep down inside,

Whether I'm awake or asleep,

It's eating me up alive...

Deep, going deep,

The more I lied, the more I cried,

To myself I can no longer keep,

It hurts, it eats me alive...

They thought I had it easy,

But I was putting up a front,

And there's no one else to blame but me,

So it is me I need to confront...

It hurts...it hurts...it hurts...

It hurts as I could only whisper voiceless words,

And my cries go unheard...

I wish to You I surrendered,

Long ago before I was captured,

I hope it's not too late as I struggled then stumbled and stood but staggered,

In You I try to find peace and comfort...

Digging deep,

Deep down inside,

Whether I'm awake or asleep,

It's eating me up alive,

So so deep,

I tried, I cried, but I still lied,

To myself I can no longer keep,

It hurts, I'm living a lie,

It hurts, it's eating me up alive...
