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

so tear me open, poor 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

so tear me open, but beware
there's things unside without a care
and the dirt stil stains me
so wash me, until it sleeps

so tell me why you've chosen me
don't want your grip, don't want your greed

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
