I should have seen those signs all around me 
But I [bad word] inside these wounds 
So go ahead and take another piece of me now 
While we all bow down to you 

You tear me down and then you pick me up 
You take it all and still it’s not enough 
You try to tell me you can heal me 
But I’m still bleeding and you’ll be 
The death of me! 

How can you end my affliction 
If you’re the sickness and I’m the cure? 
Too long I’ve faked this addiction 
Another sacrifice to make us pure 

You tear me down and then you pick me up 
You take it all and still it’s not enough 
You try to tell me you can heal me 
But I’m still bleeding and you’ll be 
The death of me! 

You tear me down and then you pick me up 
You take it all and still it’s not enough 
You try to tell me you can heal me 
But I’m still bleeding and you’ll be 
The death of me! 

I won’t forget 
I cannot forget this 
I won’t forget 
I’ll never forget this 
I won’t forget 
I cannot forget this 
I won’t forget 
I’ll never forget this 

I won’t forget! 
I cannot forget this! 
I won’t forget! 
I’ll never forget! 

You know I can never prove this solution 
You aren’t the one that I thought you were 
And so I learn to embrace this illusion 
The line that separates 
It starts to blur 

You tear me down and then you pick me up 
You take it all and still it’s not enough 
You try to tell me you can heal me 
But I’m still bleeding and you’ll be 
The death of me! 

And you’ll be the death of me! 

I will not forget! 
I cannot forget this! 
And you’ll be the death of me!
