I am the one, I'll liberate you
I can black out the sun
With my temptation
Knowing that I exist, it drives me further
To the edge of a bliss, I've never known
Waste, leave you broken, crawling over what remains
Make you, break you into what I feed on
I am the one, I'll re-create you
With a mind of your own to my own liking
I can feel what you think
When you're not looking
I can break down the walls and watch it all
Waste, leave you broken, crawling over what remains
Make you, break you into what I feed on
(chorus)
You made me come
You brought me here
