Can I reverse the setting sun back to the days when I was younger
Erase the things I've done, the man that I've become?
Death, with this wretched heart, is the only thing that I bring
There's not a cruel deed that these hands withhold
Black, the only shade these eyes are inclined to see
And anything I give, I take back tenfold
And if You really are the one, the holy one that people say
I don't know how you can stand to see my face
'cause I'm not just dark, I'm evil
I am everything I hate
I'll take until there's nothing left
This world, these people
All their suffering and pain
I only care about myself
Feed every carnal thought, all the lust that I embrace
And I don't even feel the slightest sting
Leave everything I need for the nothingness that I crave
I want to wallow in my misery
There's just something in my heart always desperate to hate
Some part of me takes pleasure in causing other people pain
I only love the ones from whom there's something I can gain
I can't see why You would ever take my place
'cause I'm not just dark, I'm evil
I am everything I hate
I'll take until there's nothing left
This world, these people
All their suffering and pain
I only care about myself
What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of the Lamb
This is all my hope and peace
This is all my righteousness
I'm not just dark, I'm evil
I am everything I hate
I'll take until there's nothing left
This world, these people
All their suffering and pain
I only care about myself
Erase the things I've done, the man that I've become?
There's not a cruel deed that these hands withhold
Black, the only shade these eyes are inclined to see
And anything I give, I take back tenfold
I don't know how you can stand to see my face
I am everything I hate
I'll take until there's nothing left
This world, these people
All their suffering and pain
I only care about myself
And I don't even feel the slightest sting
Leave everything I need for the nothingness that I crave
I want to wallow in my misery
Some part of me takes pleasure in causing other people pain
I only love the ones from whom there's something I can gain
I can't see why You would ever take my place
I am everything I hate
I'll take until there's nothing left
This world, these people
All their suffering and pain
I only care about myself
Nothing but the blood of the Lamb
This is all my righteousness
I am everything I hate
I'll take until there's nothing left
This world, these people
All their suffering and pain
I only care about myself
