and when i'm bound and lost
forever in your touch
take time, carress the pain inside
of me, cause it won't take that much
to make me feel like i'm a part
of the reality inside
wake up, to something more
than hopeless dreams and ever sleepless nights
just like i always have before

floating through a memory
or dwelling on whats left of who i used to be
i'm not the same but feel the same depravity

breaking through an empty shell
or hiding scars from all the pain i've ever felt
i drift along and surface somewhere inbetween

and if i trip and fall
a little on the way
step back, assess the guilt inside
of me, cause it won't take that much
to make me feel like i'm apart
from the reality outside
slip through, to something less
than innocence or guiltless emnity
just like i never wanted to

(chorus)

i'm afraid of letting go
of everything i've ever felt
of everything i've ever known

and all this space inbetween
will help heal these broken wings
to let me fly again

and i'm afraid of letting go
of everything i've ever felt
of everything i've ever known

and i'm afraid
of letting go

(chorus)
