Where do I take this pain of mine
I run but it stays right by my side

Chorus
   So tear me open and pour me out
   There's things inside that scream and shout
   And the pain still hates me
   So hold me until it sleeps

Just like the curse, just like the stray
You feed it once and now it stays
Now it stays

(Chorus)

   It grips you so hold me
   It stains you so hold me
   It hates you so hold me
   It holds you so hold me
   Until it sleeps

So tell me why you've chosen me
Don't want your grip
Don't want your greed
Don't want it

   I'll tear me open make you gone
   No more can you hurt anyone
   And the fear still shakes me
   So hold me, until it sleeps

   It grips you so hold me
   It stains you so hold me
   It hates you so hold me
   It holds you, holds you, holds you until it sleeps (x4)

   I Don't want it want it want it want it want it
   No

   So tear me open but beware
   There's things inside without a care
   And the dirt still stains me
   So wash me 'til I'm clean

   I'll tear thee open make you gone
   No longer will you hurt anyone
   And the hate still shapes me
   So hold me until it sleeps (x5)
