|
It's empty in the valley of your heart |
|
The sun, it rises slowly as you walk |
|
Away from all the fears |
|
And all the faults you've left behind |
|
The harvest left no food for you to eat |
|
You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see |
|
But I have seen the same |
|
I know the shame in your defeat |
|
But I will hold on hope |
|
And I won't let you choke |
|
On the noose around your neck |
|
And I'll find strength in pain |
|
And I will change my ways |
|
I'll know my name as it's called again |
|
Cause I have other things to fill my time |
|
You take what is yours and I'll take mine |
|
Now let me at the truth |
|
Which will refresh my broken mind |
|
So tie me to a post and block my ears |
|
I can see widows and orphans through my tears |
|
I know my call despite my faults |
|
And despite my growing fears |
|
But I will hold on hope |
|
And I won't let you choke |
|
On the noose around your neck |
|
And I'll find strength in pain |
|
And I will change my ways |
|
I'll know my name as it's called again |
|
So come out of your cave walking on your hands |
|
And see the world hanging upside down |
|
You can understand dependence |
|
When you know the maker's land |
|
So make your siren's call |
|
And sing all you want |
|
I will not hear what you have to say |
|
Cause I need freedom now |
|
And I need to know how |
|
To live my life as it's meant to be |
|
And I will hold on hope |
|
And I won't let you choke |
|
On the noose around your neck |
|
And I'll find strength in pain |
|
And I will change my ways |
|
I'll know my name as it's called again |
