You gave it, I took it There's nothing left of me
I saw it, I had it It's only now I see
My flesh conflicts my vision, this poison's filling me
Defiling my conscience and I know its slowly killing me (it's killing me slowly)

Why am I the one to fall for the bait again?
Unable to escape from my fatal ways
Temptation -- it comes to me when I most expect it
Yet I am unable, still, to change my (fatal) ways

I can't breath, I can't see It's consuming all of me
I've gone numb, all sense gone Oh God, I feel your grief!
Blue and black, bound and gagged, I've lost the power to leave
There's nothing, nothing left,
but Jesus Christ inside of me (He's inside of me, still)
Say good bye Say good bye You'll never know until you try
Release the pain that steals your mind You'll never know until you try
