Verse

It eats away at you I know, so hard to let it go, let
yourself go, yah just let yourself go. It consumes you can't
you see that sin hates everybody. Everybody sin hates
everybody.
Even though I know the reason why it breaks me down I wanna
cry. I search for comfort in a friend, when will my troubles
ever end. . . Ever end, ever end, never end. . . .

Chorus

Sugarcoated poison apple tastes so good that you can't see
the death and decay that's inside and what it's done to me.
The sugarcoated poison apple tastes so good how could you
know it's deceitful lies and where you're gonna go. You will
know!

That's pretty much all you need to know. At the end, play the chorus
chords with no lyrics, and end on a C.
I hope you like this. Please e-mail me with comments, suggestions, or
anything else.
