Analysis of d*mn You



What in the hell is wrong with you?
Don't you see what you're putting me through?
Don't you feel the gilt to be true?
d*mn you!

Don't you see me crying in hell?
Don't you see me rotting in jail?
Don't you feel my pain in this cell?
Its all cuz of you
Go to hell!

Don't you feel my pain in here?
Don't you see me starting to peal?
Don't you know its all cuz of you?
d*mn you!

Cant
You just go confess?

Clear
Up
This godamn mess?

Help
Me
And set me free?

Why
Hang
