There's this thorn in my side That I've been trying hard to hide It eats at me, and my defeat Is coming quickly if I can't see The error of my ways I'm slowly digging my own grave I long to find the voice inside That's guided me through the darkest nights
Pride followed by lies You're tearing down these walls I've built up in my mind The truth will come and set me free Cause all these fears can't follow me Into the place I want to be again
Now I've grown so tired of treading water Drag the lake, you'll find me here Taken down by years and years Of searching for my place A new day, an old face Watching every step I take Voices keeping me awake
And all this pressure bearing down on me Comes from the weight of the angst in all these memories You've taken something I can't let you keep So I will fight with every ounce of might inside of me To bring us back to where it all began Reaching out for a familiar hand (I want you to see what this does to me)
