"Hand That Feeds" lyrics

I know I should have the pride
I know I should have the spirit
I know you would tell a lie
If you knew I couldn't hear it

And saying it oh-so-proudly
But do you know your crimes?
And do you think about me?
And were you ever mine?

You say I mean the world to you to keep me on my knees
Then dig the knife in deeper just to watch how much I bleed
I'm stripped to the bone, I don't wanna be alone
No matter how I plead
You do it 'cause you know you can
Turn around and bite the hand that feeds

Every promise that you break
Every time you try to place the blame on me
I don't want to control the pain
Turn it into the fire I need

The feeling rushes through me
Can you still hear me cry?
But after all, I'm standing
On my own this time

You say I mean the world to you to keep me on my knees (Keep me on my knees)
Then dig the knife in deeper just to watch how much I bleed
I'm stripped to the bone, I don't wanna be alone
No matter how I plead
You do it 'cause you know you can
Turn around and bite the hand that feeds

I played your twisted game (Played your twisted game)
Now watch me walk through the flames
Choking on the taste of your mistakes and now you're the one on your knees
That's why you bite the hand that feeds
