Until It Sleeps (Live at Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre, Irvine, CA - August 4th, 1996)

[Verse 1]

Where do I take this pain of mine?

I run but it stays right by my side

[Chorus]

So tear me open but beware

There's things inside without a care

And the pain still hates me

So hold me, until it sleeps

[Verse 2]

Just like the curse, just like the stray

You feed it once and now it stays, now it stays

[Chorus]

So tear me open but beware

There's things inside without a care

And the dirt still stains me

So wash me, until I'm clean

[Refrain]

It grips you, so hold me

It stains you, so hold me

It hates you, so hold me

It holds you, so hold me

Until it sleeps (until it sleeps, until it sleeps)

[Verse 3]

So tеll me why you've chosen mе

Don't want your grip, don't want your greed, don't want it

[Chorus]

I'll tear me open, make you gone

No longer can you hurt anyone

And the hate still shakes me

So hold me, until it sleeps

[Post-Chorus]

It grips you, so hold me

It stains you, so hold me yeah

It hates you, so hold me

It holds you, holds you, holds you

Until it sleeps, (until it sleeps)

Until it sleeps, (until it sleeps) (until it sleeps)

[Bridge]

I don't want it

I don't want it, want it, want it

Want it, want it, no

[Chorus]

So tear me open but beware

The things inside without a care

And the dirt still stains me

So wash me 'til I'm clean

I'll tear me open, make you gone

No longer will you hurt anyone

And the hate still shapes me

So hold me, until it sleeps

Until it sleeps, (until it sleeps)

Until it sleeps

[Spoken]
