Swallow You Whole
You took the paper and you took away the penYou looked away as if to say "I'd do it all again"You broke your promise, you left it in a heapIn a million pieces now for someone else to keepFor someone else to keepPeople cannot let go, always got to be in controlEvil from head to toe, they'll open up and swallow you wholeThey'll open up and swallow you wholeMy mother told me, she was very wiseSome of your friends will turn on you the minute you closeyour eyesIt's better to keep your distance, than get involvedWith someone with a problem that never can be solvedNever can be solvedPeople who can't let go, always got to be in controlEvil from head to toe, open up and swallow you wholeOpen up and swallow you wholeOpen up and swallow you wholeYou took the credit where credit wasn't dueYou've always got an angle it begins and ends with youIsn't there something you can say that isn't an attackI'd walk away but I'm afraid you'd shoot me in the backShoot me in the backSongtextePeople who can't let go, and always have to be in controlEvil from head to toe, they'll open up and swallow you wholePeople who can't let go, always got to be in controlEvil from head to toe, they'll open up and swallow you wholeOpen up and swallow you wholeOpen up and swallow you whole(Even try to poison your soul) Aus Songtexte Mania
