Take the rose that you left on the window sill Take it back, and bury it inside my brain And you left me to die not wanting to care About the life you shattered of mine So I won't fear The tears and the sweat and the blood From a shattered soul Tattered and beaten, I'm blind within the cold of the fold Lost between the cold of the fold
I shed a tear about the distant memories Of things we shared, of things you said that we would be And now it's all just so false, but in the way of my life Living dreams through the times I've lost in the strife It's too much pain, too much pain, too much pain...
Lost in the lies Sharing the pain Sharing the lies I hide
Now I'll never stop caring about you And lies and the dreams of the hopes that were forged within you Want to know, want to feel, want to see love again To be a man once more, not a shell full of sand Just a shell full of sand Nothing much left of my soul
If I could care once more I'd take it all back Just to have one more chance To fill in the cracks But it fades in between my life now Nothing much left of my soul Nothing left but the old
