Tortures of the Damned Lyrics

I hate myself more than I ever let on
I'm burnt out at twenty two
I lived too fast and I loved too much and I'll die too young
But I chose this cup that I drank from

Knew what I was getting into
But I couldn't let out what I had to keep in
I'm ashamed of myself, an unspeakable sin
That I've committed and

I've made mistakes, but I'll find my way
There's no explanation for (There's no explanation for)
The things I've failed at before (The things I've failed at before)
They can't hold my hand

It just hurts to be a man
Through the tortures of the damned
Of the damned

If I only had an ax
I'd sever the ties I've made with the world
Maybe I can be a stranger in a strange place
If I start now, maybe I can be saved

If I only had a mask
I'd cover these bleeding eyes
They're bloodshot now, but they'll be black by dawn
If I wake up now, I can be pure again

I've made mistakes, but I'll find my way
There's no explanation for (There's no explanation for)
The things I've failed at before (The things I've failed at before)
They can't hold my hand

It just hurts to be a man
Through the tortures of the damned

Look at me now, I'm on the tracks
With my back towards the last train leaving town
Look at me now, I'm on the tracks
With my back towards the last train leaving town

Look at me now, I'm on the tracks
With my back towards the last train leaving town
Look at me now, I'm on the tracks
With my back towards the last train leaving town

I've made mistakes...but I'll find my way
There's no explanation for (There's no explanation for)
The things I've failed at before (The things I've failed at before)
They can't hold my hand

It just hurts to be a man
(Through the tortures of the damned)

I've made mistakes, but I'll find my way
There's no explanation for (There's no explanation for)
The things I've failed at before (The things I've failed at before)
They can't hold my hand

It just hurts to be a man
Through the tortures of the damned

I've made mistakes, but I'll find my way
There's no explanation for (There's no explanation for)
The things I've failed at before (The things I've failed at before)
They can't hold my hand

It just hurts to be a man
Through the tortures of the damned
Of the damned
