Pale Criminal - Ghastly

My stomach's acidic from caffeine and stress
The lining is ruptured and under duress
Everything's basic but hard to endure
So my mind's a rock and my heart's a stone
But I feel it all in my gut when I'm alone

It's a sinking feeling in my skin
That sense of dread that's creeping in
I'll never tell you what I feel
Emotion never had appeal

So come and dance with me tonight
And you'll feel alive
I'll tell you everything's alright
While you're deprived

It's a sinking feeling in my skin,
That sense of dread that's creeping in
I'll never tell you what I feel
Emotion never had appeal

I've given up on giving chances
I'll keep me to myself;
Am I jaded if I'm green
Do I glisten if I gleam
Am I screaming all alone
With no one on the phone

(Overgrown) and growing faster
(Overgrown) into disaster
(Overgrown) the voices say
(Overgrown) I've got hell to pay

But with life's expectations
I'm not most favored nations
I'm too big for my bones
And so scared I'll die alone

It's a beating feeling in my bones
That numbing pain that stings so cold
Ever changing yet standing still
It comes in waves, it comes for the kill

It's a sinking feeling in my skin
That sense of dread that's creeping in
I'll never tell you what I feel
Emotion never had appeal
