Kill What You Love

A man of power You never know when to quit It takes you longer To come to terms and admit That you have to bow your head And rethink what you want to forget Now it takes you so low You kill what you love Destroy what you save Deny all the pain that makes you change your old ways You kill what you love Become what you hate And hide in your shell that lets you waste all away You kill what you love It's making you tough You're out of power You wanna know how you slipped You're getting older And realize what you've missed Now you have to hold your breath For the day when you come to regret That you waited so long You kill what you love Destroy what you save Deny all the pain that makes you change your old ways You kill what you love Become what you hate And hide in your shell that lets you waste all away You kill what you love It's making you tough Then you let it down And you let it burn It's a final state of all the lessons learnt Time to run astray From the toxic game That can make or break all your faith Got to let it go But you never learn That another blow Can make your fortune turn Don't you see how the same deeds have got you so wrong Cause you kill what you love Cause you kill what you love It's holding you back It's holding you back It's holding you back back back back back back You kill what you love Destroy what you save And blame all the rest but never change your old ways You kill what you love Become what you hate And fade in your shade unless you throw it all away You kill what you love You kill what you love
