as I ran down the street all the faces appeared to me one by one by the fifth I took a sudden turn the melting snow revealed the bodies buried long ago all the violence a man can take the broken bones, and broken homes beneath my feet
on the dark side we'll meet again and cook it up for one more dance it's who we are
but I swear it'll be my last and if I go, I go alone
in the eyes of the elephant nothing's too big and no one proves you wrong but the kind they had to offer didn't do me good it barely cracked the softer shell
on the dark side we'll meet again and cook it up for one more dance it's who we are
but I swear it'll be my last and if I go, I go alone yes I failed and I can't go back I'm wasted beyond my years and I breath just to let it go
all that I wanted was to slip away for a little while 'cause I felt alone and I couldn't keep up with the world
Part II - Home Coming [instrumental]
Part III - House of Cards
where am I? they're all gone all is black and white I think I have passed on
all so warm all so calm all these worries shutting down something's wrong something's wrong
is it really you?
a moment of and they're all gone if I could close my eyes I'm sure I'd disappear
here they come pulling me up from the mud I've failed yet I'm holding on here they come I'm hiding in vain my shadow and I in our house of cards
never did I question myself for the truth there never was a greater cause never did I open my eyes for you but there it was my greater cause
here they come pulling me up from the mud I've failed yet I'm holding on here they come I'm hiding in vain my shadow and I in our house of cards
