Tortures of the Damned



I hate myself more than I ever let on

I'm burnt out at twenty-two

I lived too fast and I loved too much and I'll die too young

But I chose this cup that I drank from



Knew what I was getting into

But I couldn't let out what I had to keep in

I'm ashamed of myself, an unspeakable sin



I've made mistakes, but I'll find my way

There's no explanation for (There's no explanation for)

The things I've failed at before (The things I've failed at before...)

They can't hold my hand



It just hurts to be a man

Through the tortures of the damned

Of the damned...



If I only had an axe

I'd sever the ties I've made with the world

Maybe I can be a stranger in a strange place

If I start now, maybe I can be saved



If I only had a mask

I'd cover these bleeding eyes

They're bloodshot now, but they'll be black by dawn

If I wake up now, I can be pure again



I've made mistakes, but I'll find my way

There's no explanation for (There's no explanation for)

The things I've failed at before (The things I've failed at before...)

They can't hold my hand



It just hurts to be a man

Through the tortures of the damned



Look at me now, I'm on the tracks

With my back towards the last train leaving town

Look at me now, I'm on the tracks

With my back towards the last train leaving town



Look at me now, I'm on the tracks

With my back towards the last train leaving town

Look at me now, I'm on the tracks

With my back towards the last train leaving town



I've made mistakes...but I'll find my way

There's no explanation for (There's no explanation for)

The things I've failed at before (The things I've failed at before...)

They can't hold my hand



It just hurts to be a man

(Through the tortures of the damned)



I've made mistakes, but I'll find my way

There's no explanation for (There's no explanation for)

The things I've failed at before (The things I've failed at before...)

They can't hold my hand



It just hurts to be a man

Through the tortures of the damned



I've made mistakes, but I'll find my way

There's no explanation for (There's no explanation for)

The things I've failed at before (The things I've failed at before...)

They can't hold my hand



It just hurts to be a man

Through the tortures of the damned...

Of the damned...
