The times you found me weak and took me underneath
I failed to cast aside the voice of disbelief
Come back into these arms is what you begged of me
Commit to sacrifice, I’m crying to be free

Didn’t they try to tell me?
They can’t hear me now

Before you I recognized myself
You tore into and now I’m someone else
Who can’t go on, not the way you do
Now I’m falling turning black and blue
Before you I believed

The fire and light you choked and drowned inside of me
In toxic waves as far as naked eyes can see
I’d give anything to get it all back now that it’s too far gone
Everyone talks but nobody knows the shadow that I’ve become

Before you I recognized myself
You tore into and now I’m someone else
Who can’t go on, not the way you do
Now I’m falling turning black and blue
Before you

No one, nowhere, nothing left to turn to
No more trying to fight for souls to burn through
Beyond forsaken skies
There was no place to hide away from you
With every step and stride to get away
My foolish heart and useless praying

Before you I could recognize myself
You tore into and now I’m someone else

Before you I could recognize myself
You tore into and now I’m someone else
Who can’t go on, not the way you do
And I’ve fallen turning black and blue
Before you I believed
