Blind these eyes who never tried To lose temptation I'm so scared, where's the hesitation? You so easily proved that You could save a man I am that man [Chorus] It's better off this way To be deaf, dumb and lame Than to be the way I am, I am It's better off this way Than be groping for the flame Than to be the way I am, I am Still this tongue for I am hung
By this wicked notion Tame the beast, release The noose I've woven O, wasted tears dripping from my tongue Well I'm hung, hung [Chorus] Crooked path you never asked You just left me there And I deal with the aftermath And you don't even care O, crooked feet you nimbly meet the place of my fears
