Good Grief — текст песни (Staple)

You gave it, I took it. There`s nothing left of me.
I saw it, I had it. It`s only now I see.
My flesh conflicts my vision, this poison`s filling me.
Defiling my conscience and I know its slowly killing me (it`s killing me slowly)

Why am I the one to fall for the bait again?
Unable to escape from my fatal ways.
Temptation -- it comes to me when I most expect it.
Yet I am unable, still, to change my (fatal) ways.

I can`t breath, I can`t see. It`s consuming all of me.
I`ve gone numb, all sense gone. Oh God, I feel your grief!
Blue and black, bound and gagged, I`ve lost the power to leave.
There`s nothing, nothing left,
but Jesus Christ inside of me (He`s inside of me, still)
Say good bye. Say good bye. You`ll never know until you try.
Release the pain that steals your mind. You`ll never know until you try.
