The Inbetweenie

I am the inbetweenie

I am the inbetweenie

I am the inbetweenie

I am your new God.

 

I am the inbetweenie

I am a half cast

See my shadows fall in pain

And when you lie awake at night

You are praying

Hoping and sweating that I won’t come again

 

I am the inbetweenie

See the cancerous growth

Crawling across my skin

And when you opened up the box

You thought

You could get me back in

 

I am the inbetweenie

I feed on your misfortune

I am rotten to the core

Once upon a time

You wanted me

But not anymore

 

I am the inbetweenie

I am the inbetweenie

I am the inbetweenie

I am your new God.
