Here I am on the outside, looking in
I have to start somewhere, so I begin
To spit out the words of the knowing
We are grim reaping what we are sowing
And as I look underneath
My love turns to grief
Will I find peace if I avoid life
Can I find fulfillment in taking a wife
In your room, I am suffocating
It's just the truth I am relating
And as I look underneath
My love turns to grief
You force your bullshit into my soul
Memories I have of keeping control
Hear I speak of the one I hold dear
Mother taught me that to love is to fear
And as I look underneath
MY love turns to grief
Why is it that we need to deny
Unnatural living kills our spirit and we don't even try
To look life in the face
I imply a disgrace
And as I look underneath
My love turns to grief
Watching, waiting
Hesitating
Breathing walking
Lots of talking
Needing, feeding,
Ponder meaning
Killing, Raping
For the money
You can have
Your milk and honey
This pain I feel
Won't go away
Yes I have
The need to say that
As I look underneath
My love turns to grief
Here I am on the inside, looking out
I have to finish somewhere, I doubt
You swallow the lie without knowing
We are grim reaping what we are sowing
And as I look underneath
My love turns to grief
