Take my hands and lead me carry me the distance
Leave me at the place where, the
work is doneI don't want to sound like a broken record
but please bear with me, this is more than I can take
I'm shaking with sweat and asking for a friend
but somewhere in the end they've left my sideDid pretense make you weak your legs can't even stand
the promise of the dead is that they won't be back again
Darkness Darkness found me, here like a common thief
You guard the exits captain, but choices are never free
Take my hands lead me on
I don't want to give you answers
That you'd throw right back in to my face
I'm exhausted from being myself
But your voice, is the voice here and alwaysInside, inside follow
Control that you swallow
You've got the numbers on your side
To bury meIt's just as you said, in those words, I am identifiedLet's get this started right now
The endless excuses
We're all to watch me try
Now to dieDid pretense make you weak your legs can't even stand
the promise of the dead is that they won't be back againThis favor cast on me, but in this regard I disagree
The life you take is the only thing I have here to my name
The only thing I have is now taken awayThe mystery of iniquity the weight of secrets brought to a rest
Blood and bone have been my home, but in the eyes I see
Why it took me
