Blind these eyes who never tried
To lose temptation
I'm so scared, where's the hesitation?

You so easily proved that You could save a man
I am that man


CHORUS

It's better off this way

To be deaf, dumb and lame
Than to be the way I am, I am
It's better off this way

Than be groping for the flame
Than to be the way I am, I am
Still this tongue for I am hung

By this wicked notion
Tame the beast, release
The noose I've woven

O, wasted tears dripping from my tongue
Well I'm hung, hung


CHORUS

Crooked path you never asked

You just left me there
And I deal with the aftermath
And you don't even care

O, crooked feet you nimbly meet the place of my fears

CHORUS
