Steal my sight and then Fill my mind with foreign words To keep me wanting And speak now, child And chill my heart with all the hurt And keep me suffering
All these promises Lectures and bold-faced lies All these promises Born of a shameless mind
Leave me to heal on my own With those empty cruel promises You stole my dreams Yeah all my dreams are dead inside Please let me feel my way home Without reason or compromise You stole my dreams Now all I believe is dead inside
Be quick now, child And soil my bed with all your dirt Just keep me suffering
All these promises Lectures and bold-faced lies All these promises Born of a shameless mind
Leave me to heal on my own With those empty cruel promises You stole my dreams Yeah all my dreams are dead inside Please let me feel my way home Without reason or compromise You stole my dreams Now all I believe is dead inside
Don’t let me sleep, take me back But don’t let me be comfortable If I get too weak (please let me feel my way home) Cut no slack, and don’t let me be comfortable Don’t let me sleep (please let me feel my way home) Take me back, but don’t let me be comfortable
Leave me to heal on my own With those empty cruel promises You stole my dreams Yeah all my dreams are dead inside Please let me feel my way home Without reason or compromise You stole my dreams Now all I believe is dead inside
If you say you’re alive (please let me feel my way home) When you pray you’re alive Oh you hate when I’m right (please let me feel my way home) And you lay in the fire
