The times you found me weak and took me underneath
I failed to cast aside the voice of disbelief
Come back into these arms, is what you begged of me
Commit to sacrifice, I'm crying to be free

Whoa, oh, couldn't they try to tell me

Every step I was trying to get away
My foolish heart, useless playing

Before you I recognise myself
You tore into, and now I'm someone else
Before you I could recognise myself
You tore into, and now I'm someone else
Who can't go on, not the way you do
'Cause I'm falling, turning black and blue
Before you, I believed
