I once was a man, innocent and young
Feeling free from life's woes
I once was a man who didn't judge
I took every person for who they were

I met you, my best friend
You taught me about the world
I met you, my teacher
I labeled people and put them in boxes

I once was a man who belived in God
I went to church, never questioned
I once was a man of faith
On my way to heaven

I met you, my new God
You said you were my Jesus, the Devil's son
I met you, my end of hope
Now there is no heaven or hell, just eternal blackness

I once was a man who knew right from wrong
I knew my values I was never confused
I once was a man without any hatred
I never would fight, sweet words would fix it all

I met you my phase inverter
Right became wrong, all else was right
I met you, Pushing Me Down
I wouldn't fight, You Made Me Yell

I once was a man without desires
Sex was a thing saved for my wife
I once was a man who cared for my neighbor
Every man would die when it was time

I met you, the flame of the fires
You Pushed Me Into Her, Pain In My Heart
I met you, the black man of hate
You Held My Arm Steady, While My Blade Slit Her Neck

I once was a man who cared for himself
Never would I try to hurt myself
I once was a man who was scared of death
I spent my time praying for life

I met you, my ignorant master
You Held My Arms As You Slit My Wrists
I met you, A man without humor
YOU LAUGHED AS I BLED TO DEATH...
