I caught myself looking in the mirror

Wishing I was someone else

I was born, with a bleeding heart

And fades of loneliness



I know it, 

I've seen it,

I've held it in my arms

But love can't seem to break me down



I've pleaded,

I've faked,

I've bloodied my eyes, just to feel it

To believe it will stick around (oh whoa)



Swing wide the glimmering gates

Swing wide the glimmering gates



I've told myself

I'm having some secrets

Just to get me through

To get me through the night



I got lost in a world of vandals

And city and graves of lives



And I feel it,

I taste it

I willing to be free

(Oh) The joy, in believing like a child



So you,

You then listening

Will you send a prayer for me?

To help me find the light?



Swing wide the glimmering gates

Leave your pride and pain

Swing wide the glimmering gates

And be innocent again

Innocent Again



Swing wide the glimmering gates



One day I believe

I open up my eyes

Just to see

The good work that was begun



And I'll be

The only things 

I've ever wanted to be

And I'll know that I belong



Swing wide the glimmering gates

Leave your pride and pain

Swing wide the glimmering gates

And be innocent again

Innocent again

Be innocent again

Swing wide the glimmering gates

Leave your pride and pain (Swing Wide)

Swing wide the glimmering gates

And be innocent again (innocent, innocent again)

Swing wide the glimmering gates



Swing wide the glimmering gates
