    I've got something you can never eat,
    I've got something you can never eat,

    I drained my heart and burn my soul,
    I trained the core to stop my growth,
    I pray to die in space,
    to cover me in snow,
    to cover me in snow,
    cover me in snow,
    I'm dying, I hope you're dying too,
    cover me in snow,
    I'm dying, I hope you're dying too,
    I'm dying, I hope you're dying too,
    I'm dying, I hope you're dying too,

    Take this from me, (hate me, hate me,)

    I've got something you can never eat,
    I've got something you can never eat,
