_______________________________________________

I've been living so fast
Turned away from you, away from my fast
I've been feeding on my fears
Keep me away from here

I've been running so fast
Away from love, away from our past
When I fall into you
You take what is old and make it new

You should've killed me for the things I've said
You should've put me in the ground
You should've killed me for the things I've done
Shoot me down, way down
Shoot me down, way down

Don't know what I was thinkin
When I was livin that way
And if God hadn't taken me there
Don't know how I would have answered Him

All this life we lead
Has caused the blood you bleed
All the sins of man
The sins drove the nail
Drove the nail right through you hands
