lyrics

LIKE AN ANGEL IN A CAVERN WHO’S FORGOTTEN HOW TO FLY
YOU CLIPPED MY WINGS AND BROKE MY SPIRIT I CAN ONLY WONDER WHY
YOU ARE SO YOUNG AND YET SO WEATHERED THEY’VE ERASED YOUR WILL TO GIVE
I’M INBETWEEN THE PAIN AND PASSION THERE’S ROOM TO CRY BUT NONE TO LIVE
SOMEONE TOOK YOUR NAME OUT AS YOUR CHILDHOOD SLOWLY FADES
SOMEONE TORE YOUR SOUL OUT THOSE WHO GIVE CAN TAKE AWAY

I BEG YOU NOW TO GIVE ME FREEDOM TIME TO PICK UP WHAT I’VE LOST
YOUR VACANT STARES THEY LEAVE ME LIFELESS YOU RULE MY MIND BUT NOT MY HEART
THAT’S WHY I’M SAYING BABY SOMEONE TOOK YOUR NAME OUT
AS YOUR CHILDHOOD SLOWLY DIED SOMEONE TORE YOUR HEART OUT
COUNTLESS MORNINGS SEE ME CRY THAT’S WHY I’M SAYING DARLING…
