[Verse 1] My Guilt and My Shame always sell me short - always feel the same And My Face and My Soul always wear me thin - always under control But the longest hours you'll have in your life Are the ones you sit through to know if you're right So I'll wait, but I pray that I'm wrong Because I think I know what's going on So Let Me Get This Straight... the only will is my own I do whatever I want and stay alone All my decisions make it untouchable and tainted I'm gonna suffer for the rest of my life But I will always find a way to survive I'm not a failure, but I know what it's like I can take it or leave it... or die [Chorus] STAY - You don't always know where you stand Until you know that you won't run away There's something inside me that feels Like Breathing in Sulfur... [Verse 2] My Life is undone - and I'm a sinner to most but a sage to some And my Gods are Untrue - I'm probably wrong, but I'm better than you And the longest hours I've had in my life Were the ones I went through to know I was right So I'm safe, but I'm a little outside I'm gonna laugh when I'm buried alive [Chorus] STAY - You don't always know where you stand Until you know that you won't run away There's something inside me that feels Like Breathing in Sulfur... [Chorus] STAY - You don't always know where you stand Until you know that you won't run away There's something inside me that feels Like Breathing in Sulfur...
