It's burning
inside you
the pain of this betrayal
it's spreading
like cancer
it consumes all and consumes you
you try to let it go and just move on
but you cannot escape the grip this hate has on you
it takes a hold of your soul
and the next thing you know
you become the venomous one
it destroys all that you love
and all that you've known
and if you don't let it go, you'll become venomous
can't forgive
can't forget
the awful things they've done to you
the hatred
the fury
it boils the blood inside your veins
you've tried to let it go and just move on
but everything they say and do reminds you of the pain
that takes a hold of your soul
and the next thing you know
you become the venomous one
it destroys all that you love
and all that you've known
and if you don't let it go, you'll become venomous
you try to let it go and just move on
but you cannot escape the grip this hate has on you
you've tried to let it go and just move on
but everything they say and do reminds you of the pain
it takes a hold of your soul
and the next thing you know
you've become the venomous one
that destroys all that you love
and all that you've known
and if you don't let it go, you'll become venomous
