Affliction


I see his pain
He won't let me touch it
He won't let me near
To take it all away

I want so much
To free him from this torture
He's afraid to bring me close
He's afraid of what I'll do

He knows I have a power
A need, a desire
To take what's his
But what I want is his pain

I want to take it all away
So he can be free
And I wanna stay
So he can be with me
