A needle in my vein To make me sleep A searing pain with no relief A clouded mind and I've been cut out of my clothes You can't fight a battle For a man flying a white flag
This sickness soon will leave My body cold (my eyes retreat into my skull) This sickness soon will leave Leave my body cold Just let me go, just let me go, just let me go Scour the wreckage for a grain of hope Just let me go, just let me go Or tie the noose tight in the rope
Insincere with soulless eyes A serpent in a sheep's disguise Bathed in blood With only scabs and scars to clothe You can't feel a lover's touch With a body numb
This sickness soon will leave My body cold (my eyes retreat into my skull) This sickness soon will leave Leave my body cold Just let me go, just let me go, just let me go Scour the wreckage for a grain of hope Just let me go, just let me go Or tie the noose tight in the rope
Burn regrets Breathe deep the smoke in (To choke and gasp for air) Drink the fears To numb the cowardice soul Calloused in cravings Shackled in shame A shell of a person forgotten his name Your footprints leave no imprints As you stagger towards the grave
This sickness soon will leave My body cold (my eyes retreat into my skull) This sickness soon will leave Leave my body cold Just let me go, just let me go, just let me go Scour the wreckage for a grain of hope Just let me go, just let me go Or tie the noose tight in the rope Or tie the noose tight in the rope
