A thousand words that I want to say
Dance upon my lips but never seem to take a shape
And as they choke for air and a place to go
Everyone in front of me is drowning all alone
The scream...
And time pa**ed on broken confidence
Second glances show you it's not making any sense at all
You're falling down once again
Standing with your heart in hand, a black and bloody mess
You scream...
Don't take my home, I'm not sure I want to go
But hearts of stone are cold and dark and prone to sink
And I was thinking way too slow
How profound
Don't take what I say the wrong way
It's so simple it's hard
Though you kid what you get, you're still afraid to admit
You're feeling empty and don't know who you are
Can you feel it?
And one more thing I'll offer you
A nursing back from what went wrong, a ghost in mirror in the song
Your eyes are shut so listen up
Open-ended opportunity is offered up before you scream...
Someone take me home, I'll proclaim what I didn't know
I'll get it right, or drip a drop for my relief
From gnashing teeth and ash from bone
