[Intro]
Where do I take this pain of mine?
I run, but it stays right by my side

[Verse 1]
So tear me open and pour 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
Now it stays

[Pre-Chorus]
So tear me open, but beware
There's things inside without a care
And the dirt still stains me
So wash me until I'm clean

[Chorus]
It grips you, so hold me
It stains you, so hold me
It hates you, so hold me, yeah
It holds you, so hold me
Until it sleeps
(Until it sleeps)
Until it sleeps
(Until it sleeps)
[Verse 2]
So tell me why you've chosen me
Don't want your grip, don't want your greed
I don't want it

[Pre-Chorus]
So tear me open, make it gone
No longer will you hurt anyone
And the hate still shakes me
So hold me, until it sleeps

[Chorus]
It grips you, so hold me
It stains you, so hold me oo yeah
It hates you so hold me
It holds you
Holds you
Holds you
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps

[Outro]
I don't want it, no
Don't want it, want it, want it
Want it, want it, no
So tear me open, but beware
There's things inside without a care
And the dirt still stains me
So wash me 'til I'm clean
I'll tear thee open, make you gone
No longer will you hurt anyone
And the hate still shapes me
So hold me until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
Until it sleeps
Until it, until it sleeps
