Take this all away
I don’t need it anymore
No reason for me to pray
God won’t even the score
Lost my whole life
It was taken
By the tip of a knife
My whole future forsaken
Don’t need to live
I can’t survive anymore
Nothing left to give
It’s beginning to bore
All those who fail
Will be with me
As all of us here have sailed
Through this never-ending sea
Of lies and deceit
Told by all
They will all meet
One hell of a fall
This is a lesson
To those still standing
Fight the regression
And all the manhandling
Don’t give in
The way I did
Fight against the sin
For as long as you live
