Lyrics

The following can be heard from a 30-second sample of the song available on the iTunes Store:

    (...) down further inside
    Take it down, down further inside
    I die for your sins, and you kill me while I try and make real
    
    Let me show you where it hurts
    Let me show you where it hurts
    Let me show you where it hurts
    There's more than one way to make you cry
