I woke from the dream
Girl, you were still sleeping
I stayed by your side
Long as I could
If you open your eyes
If your heart could stop beating
Just for me, then you'd find
That I was right
Though the skin is the same
All the rest has been changed
Into what, I don't know
And you're cursing my name
In the dark you are screaming
Wondering who's to blame
You know I did what I could
I tried to a mask of silence
I tried on the hands of kindness
They were too small
You held out so long
I gave you my heart
We found out too late
There wasn't nothing
Left to give
Though the skin is the same
There's a war inside raging
Rattling chains of your love
And you know I'm ashamed
Of the wounds I've opened
With the blade of my love
