In Vain

I can see you from across the room
Spouting off how you own me
Bout how you hate my God
And that you could thrash me
Well I can tell you that I'm not the same
And that I've learned to stand up
Righteous indignation will put you on your face

But not in vain
It's not the same
When you talk to me
Watch what you say

But not in vain
It's not the same
When you talk to me
Watch what you say

I'll pick you up now off the ground
Blood trickling down your face
There's more to this than you see
It's abour what we believe
You discredit all the things that he did
Simply just to get a rise out of me
Don't you see what I mean
When I say you're out of line

But not in vain
It's not the same
When you talk to me
Watch what you say

But not in vain
It's not the same
When you talk to me
Watch what you say

You cauterize, you cauterize
The blood that flows to your eyes
Without the blood you cannot see
What you have done to me
And so I sit here by myself
Recollecting like I'm someone else
You can't believe what you do to me
You cannot see my way

But not in vain
It's not the same
When you talk to me
Watch what you say

But not in vain
It's not the same
When you talk to me
Watch what you say

Watch what you say
Watch what you say
Watch what you say
Watch what you say
