I will nurture and feed this bitterness
its worse than any of this
love and forgiveness are timeless and true
I know you're full of fear
I hope i'm never like you

I will nurture and feed this hate
it's empty and doesn't change a thing
love will end all when it comes to the end
I see you're insecure
I know there's hope for you

why can't i let go?
I'm only the shell of a man
I'm lost in myself and afraid of who i really am
the shell of a man

I will nurture and feed hostility
its one less you dwell on my anger
love is the answer inane as it seems
I know you're full of hate
I hope i'm never the same
I will nurture and feed this pain
imagine the magnitude of
love that is given the chance to prevail
I see you're full of tears
and i can sense your hell

why can't i let go?
I'm only the shell of a man
I'm lost in myself and afraid of who i really am
the shell of a man

take what you want to, now that you've got the chance to
take it, why don't you? now that you've got the chance to
take what you want to, now that you've got the chance to
take it, why don't you? now that you've got the chance to

why can't i let go?
I'm only the shell of a man
I'm lost in myself and afraid of who i really am
the shell of a man
