Proper lyrics:

This man came to me, he was looking for action. Pulling a blade to my neck, He said, "Call me the butcher, 'cause thats my trade, And you know that I’ve come to collect."

I said, "Hit me now, and we’ll see where it leads. Cut me out, if you think I will bleed. Strike me down, if you think you're a man, 'Cause I know that you don't understand."

Because there is no weapon, there is no blade. You wonder why I’m not afraid? There is no weapon, there is no blade. You’ll never kill Him that lives inside of me.

He looked into my eyes, all he saw was conviction. Dropping the blade to the earth, I said, "How could you think that I’d ever retreat? You know that I'm already dead."

I said, "Hit me now, and we’ll see where it leads. Cut me out, if you think I will bleed. Strike me down, if you think you're a man, 'Cause I know that you don't understand."

Because there is no weapon, there is no blade. You wonder why I’m not afraid? There is no weapon, there is no blade. I’ve erased all of my fear of the grave. There is no weapon, there is no blade. You wonder why I’m not afraid? There is no weapon, there is no blade. You’ll never kill Him that lives inside of me. [x2]
