Lyrics
0:10Where do I take this pain of mine
0:18I run but it stays right by my side
0:26So tear me open and pour me out
0:30There's things inside that scream and shout
0:35And the pain still hates me
0:38So hold me until it sleeps
0:52Just like the curse just like the stray
1:00You feed it once and now it stays
1:07Now it stays
1:09So tear me open but beware
1:12There's things inside without a care
1:17And the dirt still stains me
1:21So wash me until I'm clean
1:26It grips you so hold me
1:32It stains you so hold me
1:38It hates you so hold me
1:45It holds you so hold me
1:49Until it sleeps
2:00So tell me why you've chosen me
2:09Don't want your grip don't want your greed
2:15Don't want it
2:16I'll tear me open make you gone
2:21No more can you hurt anyone
2:26And the fear still shakes me
2:29So hold me until it sleeps
2:34It grips you so hold me
2:39It stains you so hold me
2:46It hates you so hold me
2:53It holds you holds you holds you
2:57Until it sleeps
3:00Until it sleeps
3:02Until it sleeps
3:04Until it sleeps
3:21I don't want it I don't want it want it want it want it want it noo
3:33So tear me open but beware
3:37There's things inside without a care
3:41And the dirt still stains me
3:44So wash me 'till I'm clean
3:49I'll tear me open make you gone
3:54No longer will you hurt anyone
3:59And the hate still shames me
4:02So hold me
4:04Until it sleeps
4:07Until it sleeps
4:08Until it sleeps
4:11Until it sleeps
4:12Until it sleeps
Where do I take this pain of mine I run but it stays right by my side 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 So tear me open but beware There's things inside without a care And the dirt still stains me So wash me until I'm clean 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 Until it sleeps Until it sleeps Until it sleeps I don't want it I don't want it want it want it want it want it noo So tear me open but beware There's things inside without a care And the dirt still stains me So wash me 'till I'm clean I'll tear me open make you gone No longer will you hurt anyone And the hate still shames me So hold me Until it sleeps Until it sleeps Until it sleeps Until it sleeps Until it sleeps
