Decay Lyrics by Sevendust

Black Out the Sun

2013

[Verse 1: Lajon Witherspoon]
Warned, the voices I hear have warned me
The deepest lies adore you
And consume you in every way
You're giving us nothing

[Chorus: Lajon Witherspoon]
Decay
Cut the tongue you speak with
To say
Don't believe, don't believe it
The wrong way
On the path to somewhere
Don't feed the selfish mouth of man

[Verse 2: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
Born into a life that depletes me
Your empty words have burned you
And condemned you another day
Again, you mean nothing
(Decay, decay, decay, decay)

[Chorus: Lajon Witherspoon]
Decay
Cut the tongue you speak with
To say
Don't believe, don't believe it
The wrong way
On the path to somewhere
Don't feed the selfish mouth of man

[Refrain: Morgan Rose]
Aah...
Take it away!

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus: Lajon Witherspoon]
Decay
Cut the tongue you speak with
To say
Don't believe, don't believe it
The wrong way
On the path to somewhere
Don't feed the selfish mouth of man

Decay
Cut the tongue you speak with
To say
Don't believe, don't believe it
The wrong way
On the path to somewhere
Don't feed the selfish mouth of man

[Outro: Morgan Rose]
Decay
