Lyrics

[00:13.980] It's empty in the valley of your heart
[00:17.330] The sun, it rises slowly as you walk
[00:20.720] Away from all the fears
[00:22.510] And all the faults you've left behind
[00:27.500] The harvest left no food for you to eat
[00:30.870] You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see
[00:34.230] But I have seen the same
[00:37.050] I know the shame in your defeat
[00:42.010] But I will hold on hope
[00:45.500] And I won't let you choke
[00:48.800] On the noose around your neck
[00:52.390] And I'll find strength in pain
[00:55.370] And I will change my ways
[00:58.810] I'll know my name as it's called again
[01:17.040] Cause I have other things to fill my time
[01:20.300] You take what is yours and I'll take mine
[01:23.950] Now let me at the truth
[01:25.180] Which will refresh my broken mind
[01:30.530] So tie me to a post and block my ears
[01:33.680] I can see widows and orphans through my tears
[01:37.070] I know my call despite my faults
[01:39.610] And despite my growing fears
[01:44.610] But I will hold on hope
[01:48.100] And I won't let you choke
[01:51.420] On the noose around your neck
[01:55.020] And I'll find strength in pain
[01:58.040] And I will change my ways
[02:02.160] I'll know my name as it's called again
[02:09.720] So come out of your cave walking on your hands
[02:13.070] And see the world hanging upside down
[02:16.260] You can understand dependence
[02:18.640] When you know the maker's land
[02:23.870] So make your siren's call
[02:26.790] And sing all you want
[02:30.700] I will not hear what you have to say
[02:34.100] Cause I need freedom now
[02:37.450] And I need to know how
[02:41.440] To live my life as it's meant to be
[03:06.880] And I will hold on hope
[03:10.500] And I won't let you choke
[03:13.630] On the noose around your neck
[03:17.410] And I'll find strength in pain
[03:20.630] And I will change my ways
[03:23.690] I'll know my name as it's called again
