I've been suckling for far too long
I've been slowly letting the fires die down
I've been smashed and broken, i must pick myself together
if i have the will--if i can find it still (x2)
Oh, i'll make the same mistake and make it three times more
I don't ask for permission, most only for forgiveness
And i would make amends, but i am such a chore
And in my defense i've been shattered on the floor
but i am just a man, whom do i answer for?
And you'll catch me playing with myself in the corner
I am lost now, i have been mourning my own self
Just put me in the ground
cuz oh, i've been dead--i've been dead awhile now
Oh, i'll make the same mistake and make it three times more
I don't ask for permission, most only for forgiveness
And i would make amends, but i am such a chore
And in my defense i've been shattered on the floor
But i am just a man, whom do i answer for?
My face has grown old, my face has grown cold
i'm sick to the stomach and i made it so
My mind has grown old, my body's necrosed
My muscles are atrophied and i made it so
My heart has grown cold, my heart has old
I am a monster and i made it so
