MASTER RECORDING LYRICS
FONT:
Cold, lying in my bed,
staring into darkness.
Lost, I hear footsteps overhead
and my thoughts return again.
Like a child who's run away
and won't be coming back
time keeps passing by as
night turns into day.
I'm so far away and so alone,
I need to see your face to keep
me sane, to make we whole.
Try to stay alive
until I hear your voice
I'm gonna lose my mind!
Someone tell me why I chose
this life, this superficial lie!
Constant compromise,
endless sacrifice!
Pain, it saddens me to know
the helplessness you feel.
Your light shines on my soul
while a thousand candles burn.
Outside this barren room
the rain is pouring down,
the emptiness inside is
growing deeper still.
You're so far away and so alone.
You long for Love's embrace to keep
you sane, to make you whole.
Try to stay alive
until I hear your voice
I'm gonna lose my mind!
Someone tell me why I chose
this life, this superficial lie!
Constant compromise,
endless sacrifice!
Moments wasted, isolated,
time escaping, endless sacrifice!
Moments wasted, isolated,
time escaping, endless sacrifice!
Over the distance we try to make sense
of surviving together while living apart.
Striving for balance, we rise to the challenge
of staying connected in spite of circumstance.
All you've forsaken and all that you've done
so that I could live out this undying dream
won't be forgotten or taken for granted,
I'll always remember your endless sacrifice.
Moments wasted, isolated,
time escaping, endless sacrifice!
Moments wasted, isolated,
time escaping, endless sacrifice!
