I thought you weren't contagious I thought I owned my inner-self

You offer, now I forget the reason I can't have

As you try hard to please me this need turns to greed down inside

I touch the hand of my sickness and feel my faith divide

If I said I would, would you care? Would you take me there?

And feed my desire with your will to give

A distant storm and the lightning strikes the pouring rain feels warm tonight

The thunder echoes and the lesson begins as one more time you take me in

But I look back at you and think of all the things I should have said and done

But I can't talk no I can't talk I try to hide myself from shame

And try to share the blame for what I've done what have I done?

Now I said I would, do you care as you take me there

I taste my first time and now I can't turn away

I lie to myself like a man trying to understand

As you change my life with your will to give

I see disgrace and it's looking back at me

Blame my desire for the lies I live and breathe

Begin again though the hardest part to take

Behind my eyes you still remain

[Guitar Solo]

I thought you'd understand when you took me there

The hardest part to take you still remain

You still remain
