Crumbsuckers - B.O.M.B. (Beast On My Back) lyrics

I've made a few mistakes

Don't think I'll ever live them down

I'm a prisoner of guilt

To my past forever bound

To follow the straight and narrow was always on my

mind

But I let my guard down, I tripped the line

Never ever thought I would take a fall

Didn't think it would happen, no I was too strong

Forever haunted by a beast on my back

Deceitful temptation, a planned attack

I'm a victim of the evil one

Can't turn around, live my life on the turn

My mind's plagued with guilt

'Til the day I die

I want to live a better life

Believe me I try

Prayed that the past would soon disappear

No matter how hard I try

My memory is clear

The wicked law prevails

Intentions have turned sour

Intensity of evil grows

Stronger by the hour

Once again I've lost my balance

And stumbled to the ground

Will I ever be free?

How long shall I be bound?

I despise the vice I worship

Hope it's not too late

A weak and spineless victim

Doing what I hate

Temptations - seize me and I become a slave

Succumbing - to human nature

No man can save me!

Beast on my back

In agony I dwell

Beast on my back

This is a living hell

I've felt this way before

So empty inside

Trust the promises of the world

To find out that they've lied

The nightmare is now over

The scars shall never fade

Etched into my memory

Are the mistakes that I have made

What a wretched being

Such unease!

Trapped within this shell of death

Rescue me!

Alas! The spirit of life

Freed from sin!

The fight is not yet over

But we'll win!

Win!
