I wake to find myself trapped in a frozen well, my hollow cell
Those same dark thoughts
That creep through the window at nightWould leave me paralyzed
Eyes wide, searching for meaning
In the fleeting nothings
I′ve tried forcing that feeling
But I don't believe myself
Starved for a truth to set me free
I long for your embrace
Scarred from the bitter memories
That tell me I should change
That tell me I should...
Eyes wide, sharp like a knife
You′d use to pierce through my chest
I've tried cutting the ties
But I can't seem to help myself
Starved for a truth to set me free
I long for your embrace
Scarred from the bitter memories
That tell me I should change
But I am still my father′s son, the stubborn one
So I couldn′t listen
Carve out the heart and set me free
Before the colors fade
I'll pretend to lift this heart of stone each time you draw near
In the end I′d rather sleep alone
But still I lie here over and over, again and again
Over and over, again and again
Starved for a truth to set me free
I long for your embrace
Scarred from the bitter memories
That tell me I should change
But I am still my mother's son, the troubled one
So I′ll keep my distance
Carve out the heart and set me free
Before the colors fade
