I’m living in my head most of the day
Can’t formulate the ways I want to say
That I hate what we have become
The things we’ve undone
Our own greatest threat
I want to be here but I feel hollowed out
Where dreams once lived is a seed sown of doubt
And the time keeps passing me by
Life on the line
How we used to shine
You say you want to stay, well I’m gonna go
It cannot permeate, these things you don’t know
You’re locked here in a trance
False sense of romance
All alone
Why couldn’t you understand that I am
Living under your thumb
All of those moments you stole from me and
Now I have to find them
Why couldn’t you understand that I still live
Bound to this weight
These heavy words fall hard on hollow hearts
And I’m here to receive them
With each passing day
I still don’t feel
All the things I’ve given
Could be used to heal
All the scars that mark your heart
When will you start
To see what I’ve done
All the ways I carried it
And I never saw
How it lived inside of me
Behind guarded walls
I crossed a bridge too far
I’ve opened my scars
Releasing the flood
How do I tell you
I can’t hold anymore
You could learn to love yourself
And be free from it all
And you’ll see the strength of your light
The depth of your heart
It will burn so bright
Why couldn’t you understand that I am
Living under your thumb
All of those moments you stole from me and
Now I have to find them
Why couldn’t you understand that I still live
Bound to this weight
These heavy words fall hard on hollow hearts
And I’m here to receive them
Why couldn’t you understand that I still live
Bound by this
Bound by this weight

Your Heart

Say you’ll let me stay
I’ve been waiting for an answer from above
Every single day
Come to me my love
Hold the key to sweet salvation
My only one
Oooh your love
How you make me feel
Oooh your love
Could all this be real
Hold me when I’m broken
Crying in your arms
Like a child left defenseless
You told me I was worthy
I spent my whole life thinking
I was someone less than deserving
I’ll say to you
I’ll say to you
That your love
There’s nothing like it on earth
I’ll say to you
I’ll say to you
That your heart
There’s no one else like you
No one else like you
Oooh your love
How you make me feel
Oooh your love
Could all this be real
Abandon your reason
The requiem, the requiem
All things have their season
Call me to light
I’ll wait here for a sign
Enlightened mind on fire
Here in my time
Call me to the light
Abandon your reason
The requiem
All things have their season

I am waiting to bring the end of things
While I sit and wonder where you’ve been
All I ever wanted was to please you,
See you,
be with you here
I am yearning for the chance to tell you how
The ways you’ve hurt me brought me so much doubt
Ephemeral and waning like the waves upon sand,
Rain onto land,
gone again
Let our love die
Ashes to the sky
Soon you’ll realize
Soon you’ll realize
Soon you’ll realize
This was all in vain
Burning with desire
You’re the one I need
Soon you’ll realize
Soon you’ll realize
Soon you’ll realize
I am floating in a sea of uncertainty
The whispered promises surrounding me
While you were playing the victim
All the lonesome nights without you here
Cursing myself for everything
that went wrong with us before
I realized that you were playing me as a fool
Me as a fool
As a fool
Let our love die
Ashes to the sky
Soon you’ll realize
Soon you’ll realize
Soon you’ll realize
This was all in vain
Burning with desire
You’re the one I need
Soon you’ll realize
Soon you’ll realize
Soon you’ll realize
This was all in vain
Holding onto nothing
(You are an enigma, the one that wounded me)
Let our love die
Ashes to the sky
Soon you’ll realize
Soon you’ll realize
This was all in vain
Burning with desire
You’re the one I need
Soon you’ll realize
Soon you’ll realize
Soon you’ll realize
This was all in vain

Light of day fading into the night
On the whispering wind, an apparition
Will you hold me close
When you take me home
In this nightmare we share
The stars aligned around your head
At the bottom of everything
You loved another
Crossed the ocean of emptiness
To bring me another open heart
And I could have had everything I wanted
If you let me try
Only you see
The way I can love you
The way I can love you
You could be sowing doubt in my mind
Rotting root and stem under your spell
All of the wanting, all of the lives you’ve led
Echo through the time that we’ve shared
At the bottom of everything
You loved another
Crossed the ocean of emptiness
To bring me another open heart
And I could have had everything I wanted
If you let me try
In the night, your shape taking form
Tremble from the fear of your scorn
All the forgotten, all of the death and doom
Riding by your side for all of time
Only you see
The way I can love you
The way I can love you
