I open my eyes, was that real or was I dreaming

I don't hit the ground, but I'm falling forever

I'm close to the edge and I want to just fly away

To silence the voices, is this the only way?



I bring you my dreams that inspire imagination

They are nothing like yours, so I lock them away again

I lie to myself and believe that I'm healing

The higher I climb, the longer I fall



Crossing over burning bridges

There's nothing left of you inside my mind

The hourglass is long and empty

The time has come to break the chains of misery

Crossing over burning bridges

There's nothing left of you inside my mind

The hourglass is long and empty

The time has come to break the chains of misery



I remember skipping rocks across still waters

And I remember chasing colors flying through thin air

And I remember the water shone my first reflection

I can't forget always waiting, I was wishing you were there

You were never, never there



Primadonna, she was sleeping with a stranger again

Godforsaken and the savior hanging on the bedroom wall

Contradictions, they manifest such deep resentmens in me

Transparent one I'm not naive and you, you're not holier than thou

Amen



I'm inside you, I deny you

I surround you, I defy you

Hear the voices, they are godless

No forgiveness, so relentless



In the real world you feel real pain

A never ending war inside, again and again

Are you who you think you are, my life runs through your veins

Try as you will, my son, try

But you will not break the chains of misery



I can feel anger rising like the sun rises every day that I'm here

Now and then you return to open the wounds again and again
