I can't get you off of my hands
Like a stain I wear the blood of a man
who knew too much of what I am
Can't get you off of my hands
I can't get you out of my mind
and I search the desert only to find
I taste you like a bitter wine
Can't get you out of my mind
I can't get you off of my tongue
when they ask if I say you are the one
and I cannot hide, but still I run
Can't get you off of my tongue
Run on, run on as though he's gone
You cannot know
how much more you'll take
'til the binding breaks
tell me, how far do you think you can go
I can't get you under my feet
and I walk like I have fallen asleep
while I give away what you would keep
Can't get you under my feet
I can't stop the pain in my chest
but I push the ground and draw in my breath
'til I lose whatever strength is left
The pain is burning my chest
