All alone as you look through the door. Nothing left to see. If it hurts and you can't take no more. Lay it all on me. . No you don't have to keep it under lock and key.
When I find myself in times of trouble. Mother Mary comes to me. Speaking words of wisdom. Let it be. . And in my hour of darkness. She is standing right in front of me.
I'm hearing voices in my head. Telling me the things I should have said. I don't know why I let you go. Oh I learned the hard way. Tell me it's not too late.
I was born by the river in a little tent. Oh, and just like the river I've been running ever since. . It's been a long, a long time coming. But I know a change gon' come, oh yes it will.
Remember those walls I built?. Well, baby they're tumbling down. And they didn't even put up a fight. They didn't even make a sound. I found a way to let you in.
I once loved a tailor. Who took eager care of me,. Sewed together my loose ends. With stitches neat and clean.. But now my love is gone. And I am left unraveling.
I've grown a mouth so sharp and cruel -. It's all that I can give to you, my dear.. And when you come in quick to steal a kiss,. My teeth will only cut your lips, my dear..
You don't have to believe every single thought. That tumbles through your head. Just 'cause it sounds like you talking.. Sometimes all you can do. Is say goodnight and tuck your demons into bed,.
Tell me once again:. I could have been anyone, anyone else. Before you made the choice for me.. My feet knew the path--. We walked in the dark, in the dark..
I saw your breath, you bastard. I need to know.. I saw your eyes so sweet grow cold, cold,. Cold as I could never know.. . You built the glacier house in the fading summer..
