    Lyrics
    I'm rotting inside
    My flesh turns to dust
    Whisper, “are you dying?” in my ear
    I'm so sick to death
    Tumors in my head
    Whisper, “are you dying?” in my ear
    Black rose of death
    In my fist I clutch
    Thorns shred my finger tips
    And drips toxic blood
    Kiss me one last time
    Wipe off my sweat
    Whisper, “are you dying?” in my ear
    As my bones they rust
    20 pounds of trust
    Whisper, “are you dying?” in my ear
    Black rose of death
    In my fist I clutch
    Thorns shred my finger tips
    And drips toxic blood
    I'm rotting inside
    My flesh turns to dust
    Whisper, “are you dying?” in my ear
    Kiss me one last time
    Wipe off my sweat
    Whisper, “are you dying?” in my ear
    Whisper, “are you dying?” in my ear
