Once I would think, "I choose my destiny," Shields against the pain, I began to rise I swore nothing would hurt me anymore Cold walls, smooth like gold I began to grow
Behind these walls I faded My fears held deep inside But still the world remained outside Though I had closed my eyes
Though nobody knows the cross I bear And I cry with no tears The darkness is my only guiding light HIDE the scars that never show Now nothing gets through me anymore The feelings I denied Distant dreams in my mind
Once I would think, "I can rule everything," I was such a fool hoping to feel no pain I swore to the world "Nothing will hurt me anymore." Cold, vain like gold I threw away my days
Behind the walls put up The fears bestowed far away But still the world remained there Although I had closed my eyes It was like dying
HIDE the scars so they won't show The lies don't get to me anymore The feelings I denied, now laid on my bed
When darkness was my only light I longed to feel my pain The pain that tells you you're alive
A feeling denied This creature inside I know what I am breeding I'll be here to hold it with my lies
A fiend to be tamed By sipping it's bane I know on what I am feeding I believe I'll show you through my eyes
Behind the walls I put up The fears bestowed far away But still the world remained there Although I had closed my eyes
I'm the one who knows the wounds are there Thought covered with this hate The darkness is my only guiding light HIDE the scars so they won't show The lies don't get to me anymore The feelings I denied Now laid on my bed... ...laid on my bed
