giving back the pain
afterlife
cross my heart and hope to die
you just put it all to shame
now i'm taking back my life
so i'm giving back the pain
takes a tragedy for us to speak
bound hands crushed under the weight of the world's feet
say a prayer that i make it tonight
selling you a broken dream
but in reality there's blood on the streets
i'll tell you what it means to me
so point the gun at me and pull the trigger
cross my heart and hope to die
you just put it all to shame
now i'm taking back my life
so i'm giving back the pain
i saw right through it all
cross my heart and hope to die
price tag on the loved ones that we stand by
who's in charge? do you realize?
say a prayer that i make it through this so-called life
look at what you've done to me
i can see you're hiding fear in your eyes
so take the pain you gave me and say goodbye
cross my heart and hope to die
you just put it all to shame
now i'm taking back my life
so i'm giving back the pain
i saw right through it all
cross my heart and hope to die
i'll see you at your burial
i'll see you at your burial
i'll see you at your burial
cross my heart and hope to die
you just put it all to shame
now i'm taking back my life
so i'm giving back the pain
i saw right through it all
cross my heart and hope to die
