Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I'm digging my way

I'm digging my way to something

I'm digging my way to something better

[Verse 2]

I'm pushing to stay

I'm pushing to stay with something

I'm pushing to stay with something better

[Verse 3]

I'm sowing the seeds

I'm sowing the seeds I've taken

I'm sowing the seeds I take for granted

[Verse 4]

This thorn in my side

This thorn in my side is from the tree

This thorn in my side is from the tree I've planted

It tears me and I bleed

And I bleed

[Verse 5]

Caught under wheels' roll

I take the leech, I'm bleeding me

Can't stop to save my soul

I take the leash that's leading me

I'm bleeding me

I can't take it

Caught under wheels' roll

The bleeding of me

Of me

The bleeding of me

[Verse 6]

Caught under wheels' roll

I take the leech, I'm bleeding me

Can't stop to save my soul

I take the leash that's leading me

I'm bleeding me

I can't take it

Caught under wheels' roll

The bleeding of me

The bleeding of me

[Verse 7]

I am the beast that feeds the feast

I am the blood, I am release

Come make me pure

Bleed me a cure

I'm caught, I'm caught, I'm caught under

[Verse 8]

Caught under wheels' roll

I take that leech, I'm bleeding me

Can't stop to save my soul

I take the leash that's leading me

I'm bleeding me

I can't take it

I can't take it

I can't take it

The bleeding of me

[Verse 9]

I'm digging my way

I'm digging my way to something

I'm digging my way to something better

[Verse 10]

I'm pushing to stay

I'm pushing to stay with something

I'm pushing to stay with something better

With something better
