Shadow Gallery - Pain lyrics

rate me

Of all the stories that have ever been written<br />

I've been assailed<br />

Right off the page<br />

Winter fell across the floor in silence<br />

I just stopped and wondered why<br />

<br />

Well it's a cold and strange sad situation<br />

Off the shore tossed by by the waves<br />

My every other word misunderstood why<br />

I'd ever speak out loud again<br />

<br />

Clinging on so tight<br />

I bled my hands<br />

I draw the shades<br />

And hang my head and run<br />

<br />

All those simple things<br />

Essential to me<br />

You cast aside<br />

To go and be alone<br />

<br />

You can't see the way I grieve<br />

Love's the air I need to breath<br />

I hope you understand<br />

Just need to find myself again<br />

I see no choice but leaving<br />

So tired of flying alone<br />

<br />

On the battlefield<br />

You were never there beside me<br />

Who will I be if I recover from this?<br />

I'm not the enemy<br />

There's so much good inside me<br />

The real you left and never came back home<br />

<br />

Round and round oh<br />

There is a rhythm where<br />

Two hearts should meet<br />

A sense of comfort and<br />

A point of common ground<br />

<br />

To have and then to hold and then to cry<br />

And then to break upon the waves<br />

<br />

You see me through dark eyes<br />

That color me wrong<br />

Immersed inside a world<br />

Where charity dies<br />

<br />

And what of all that talk of<br />

How two become one and<br />

I hope you understand<br />

Just need to find some grace again<br />

There seems to be no reason<br />

Rejected off and away<br />

<br />

On the battlefield<br />

You were never there beside me<br />

Who will I be should I recover from this?<br />

There are no enemies<br />

Just death of love inside me<br />

The bitter truth of this has come back home<br />

<br />
