I've lived the life of a dead man, Stiff and bored while forever ticks on by And I've never asked why.
Oh, I've been used, I've been played And in my heart the decay it takes its toll, All for the cost of my soul.
But in the light there appears One single face and all my fears Are soon replaced by a burning, yearning fire...
CHORUS: I am undone, I've unraveled As, for all of my travels, I have never seen a beauty such as this. I will fight, I will win her heart And all that comes with it. You should know that I never aim to miss. Oh, I'm alive for the very first time.
So now the truth is revealed, This wooden heart still can feel something but hate. Am I sealing my fate?
For I would give everything And face whatever fate would bring me in return. I'd gladly watch it all burn
To see the light there appear To see her face and all my fears As they're replaced by a burning yearning fire...
CHORUS
Oh, hell is empty and all the devils here. I will keep them all at bay. I will keep you safe and near. Oh, hell is empty and all the devils here. I will never let them touch you. I will keep you safe my dear.
