Lyrics for Branded

I once told someone I/truly loved them They laughed at me and they/spat in my face But I woke up to a brand-new morning; I destroyed compassion without a trace (mark my words) If youve broken a pure heart, youre branded for life. Every day people will/die for their causes I give my blessings to them/every one I only wish my life too could be taken One life is a small price for a good deed done (mark my words) If youve broken a pure heart, youre branded for life You were there with the Devil, you handed him the knife You said "Drive it home", so he drove it home You said "Twist it", so he twisted it
