"Sold My Soul" lyrics - THE USED
I think of the worm that I've become
Left blind from the brightness of your halo
No one shines, like you do
My filthy mouth and broken words
This small disease that leaves me, crawling.. crawling to you
Crawl underground for cover, staying close to the dark to keep from falling (falling), from falling
[Chorus 1:]
Sold my life to bring the rain, maybe to wash me clean
Sold my soul to stop the pain, hoping you'd set me free
All your fear, all your shame
You know that you can lay it all on me
That you can lay it all on me
I took every chance to lash my tongue
You wore the scabs just like an angel
There's something about you
Horrible things that I have done
Seems this disease is slowly spreading
Start running, what would you do?
I'd crawl underground for cover
Stay out of my mind to keep from dying (dying), from dying
[Chorus 2:]
Sold my life to bring the rain, maybe to wash me clean
Sold my soul to stop the pain, hoping you'd set me free
All your fear, all your shame
You know that you can lay it all on me
You know that you can lay it all on me
[Bridge:]
Could you forget then what I said and how I died inside my head
We're starting over, not pretending that the past is dead
All the pain you feel you own
And the times I should've known
Don't keep it inside, let it out and lay it all on me
[Chorus 3:]
Sold my life to bring the rain, maybe to wash me clean
Sold my soul to stop the pain, hoping you'd set me free
All your fear, all the blame
You know that you can lay it all on me
You can lay it all on me
