Tainted I stand here ridden with decease 
Nail me with a vacant stare 
Prepare me for release 
Sow a scar upon my face 
Plans for my resurrection laid to waste 

Chorus: 

It takes more than me 
to heal the infected eye 
I’d drain me dry 
to heal the long lost beauty 
It takes more than me 
to seal the infected eye 
I’ll follow my fate 
to cut your tongue of hate 

Sink further down 
Let myself drown 
in my own self-deception 
Watch how the mirrors twist the truth 
Thoughts designed to destroy the average man 
Thoughts designed to erase our confidence 
Anger 
Frustration 
the message is now! 
These are all things that now pressure my soul 

I can see your face turning blue 
The fire in your eyes is fading too 
I can sense the fear running through your veins 
as the pictures turn to red
