you give me the reason.
you give me control.
i gave you my Purity.
my Purity you stole.
did you think i wouldn´t recognize this compromise.
am i just too stupid to realize.
stale incense old sweat and lies lies lies

[Chorus:]
it comes down to this.
your kiss.
your fist.
and your strain.
it get´s under my skin.
within.
take in the extent of my sin

you give me the anger.
you give me the nerve.
carry out my sentence.
well i get what i deserve.
i´m just an effigy to be disgraced.
to be defaced.
your need for me has been replaced.
and if i can´t have everything well then just give me a taste.

[Chorus]

you give me the reason.
you give me control.
i gave you my Purity.
my Purity you stole.
did you think i wouldn´t recognize this compromise.
am i just too stupid to realize.
stale incense old sweat and lies lies lies
