It drains the blood your veins The colour from your cheeks The summer from your eyes And the days from your weeks Everyone needs something if they're going to survive This one needs a soul Just to keep it alive
In the moment at hand In the shrapnel and the dirt Vows are exchanged Pleasantries rehearsed You prepare the patient, cook up the mix This one don't move or breathe 'til you give it a fix
This one goes to market This one went to bed with someone that you know This one keeps you warm at night This one dug a hole in your head and This one eats souls This one eats souls This one eats souls All souls alive All souls alive
Please baby don't you try To keep us apart There's a worm in this apple And this one has no heart You will be the perfect host As it grows inside You will follow this one Wherever it goes This one goes to market This one went to bed with someone that you know This one keeps you warm at night This one it went straight to your head This one drives for five miles This one lasts for seventeen years You may lose your way in the night But by the end it is perfectly clear that This one eats souls This one eats souls This one eats souls All souls alive This one eats souls This one eats souls This one eats souls All souls alive All souls alive All souls alive All souls alive All souls alive All souls alive All souls alive All souls alive All souls alive All souls alive All souls alive All souls alive
