Lyrics
Find another songI want you to know this
I want you to know this
I want you to know just what I feel
I want you to know this
I want you to know this
I want you to know this, what I feel
You told me through sacred lies
I told you once with bloodshot eyes
You told me don't ask
Just stay away from me
You told me it'd be alright
I told you once, then told you twice
You can't face
Can't you face me
Face me
I won't pray for you
I won't pray for you
I can't pray for you
Because you took it away
Because you took it away
Because you took it away
I want you to know this
I want you to know this
I want you to know just what I feel
I want you to know this
I want you to know this
I want you to know just what I feel
You told me through sacred lies
I told you once with bloodshot eyes
You told me don't ask
Just stay away from me
You told me it'd be alright
I told you once, then told you twice
You can't face
Can't you face me
You can't face me
I won't pray for you
I won't pray for you
I can't pray for you
Because you took it away
Because you took it away
Because you took it away
Thought I could never ever fuckin' find another
Get a muthafuckin' chance again
Because the power is the rage that can devour
Gotta make that fear descend
Without it, you ain't shit
And you ain't shit to me
Berating, a scathing
Grave indignity
I see the look inside your eyes
It makes me sick
Defiling innocence
Is how you get your kicks
You violate, and then you think yourself a man
You violate, and then you call yourself a man
Don't come my way
Don't care what you say
Pray you fuckin' die
Before you feel my
Rage (rage)
