These are the bruises you dealt I've taken every punch Through the years I have tried to abide And leave the chaos behind Don't hold my hand. Do not come too near... I'll crush your bones indeed Don't hold my hand. Do not come too near... You'll learn it hurts to bleed The guilt and anger remained This is what held me down In your shadow for way too long I always thought I was wrong Don't hold my hand. Do not come too near... I'll crush your bones indeed Don't hold my hand. Do not come too near... You'll learn it hurts to bleed Now for once I start anew Building something without you Something genuine and... (LEAVE ME ALONE...OUT OF MY HEAD) The oblivion within (LEAVE ME ALONE) In my spine and through my skin (OUT OF MY HEAD) At the edge I'll hold the line Test me again, see if I care Cross my domain, try if you dare...
