you
you came running
running fast just behind
your fear, your obsession

wondering aloud
has everything been stolen?
try as you will
the chain will not be broken

don't place your love in an empty heart
there's nothing to take, nothing to give
beware the depths of this empty heart

as sure as you're lost

you're never to be found

you fight
fight the voice of reason
but victory today
it will swallow tomorrow

there is no defense
and so little time
can the sacrifice be worth it

don't place your love in an empty heart
there's nothing to take, nothing to give
beware the depths of this empty heart

as sure as you're lost

you're never to be found

you
you have fallen
looking up into eyes
that see nothing

the pain that you hide
for the love that must be showered
upon those who can't feel
numb from the lies with which they torture
