There's something growing inside of me
Crawling up my spine, past my gums and teeth
He has small, nippy, angry hands
That he wrings with malicious thoughts and plans
So I choked down a bottle of ethanol
To drown him out once and for all
But this plan was inherently flawed
He went to AA, and then he found god
Little Man, destroy me
Little Man, make me scream
Devour me from inside out
Little Man, Black Me Out
His teeth sink in, sharp and cold
Grimy mouth lined with briny black mold
Chewing his way out until he sees sunlight
Sending me spiraling across the I-95
Entrails spill on the driver side floor
I can't see or understand what happened before
Because the past was hard, but we got over it
Now I feel so alone and distant
(oh)
Little Man, destroy me
Little Man, make me scream
Devour me from inside out
Little Man, Black Me Out
Choke the pride between my thighs
Make me bleed, make me cry
That shriveled snake of seething gout
The worms crawl in your life drains out
Wear me like a three-piece suit
Drag me around, punish pollute
From now until the end of time, I am yours you are mine
