What happened to me it seems so long ago
The cuts run deep and the scars still show
I live in the shadows where it's been so hard to grow
I'm still a servant in a nobleman's robes

You know my weakness girl you know my kind
You helped me see when I was blind
D Bb C Bb
It's a crime to live my life without you
D Bb C C Bb C Bb
Serve out my years in darkness
D Bb C Bb
Inside these walls I die without you
And when I close my eyes... I'm caught in the balance

- Riff A -
Afraid of the hurricane I hide in my domain
I need release from all this pain
Please don't forsake me in these ruins of your home
I can't wait forever don't leave me alone
I have a secret if you want to learn
I will surrender in return
