[Verse 1]
And M.E., I eat dust
We're all so run down
I'd call it my death
But I'll only fade away
And I hate to fade alone
Now there's only M.E

[Verse 2]
We were so sure
We were so wrong
Now it's over
But there's no one left to see
And there's no one left to die
There's only M.E

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
Why should I care?
Why should I try?
Oh no, oh no
I turned off the pain
Like I turned off you all
Now there's only M.E

[Instrumental]
