When they skinned you alive I was right by your side
|
In a single dark room, they were singing the tune,
|
You spoke in tongues cut out, mimicked words of those devout.
|
|
No guns, no glory, no heroes in this story.
|
Just the words of a fool, the thoughts of a king, and a heart that screams fury.
|
|
I wanna know, if you had this stage what would you say and could I sing along?
|
Or would you convince me there¡¯s nothing left and that all hope is gone?
|
|
So I need a jump-start, baby. I need a new heart, yeah?
|
I need a way to find myself without falling apart.
|
So I need a new mask maybe. This face just will not last.
|
I will seek you out; I will never bring you back.
|
|
I¡¯m walking around trying how to find the sound
|
Of planes crashing and pilots swearing off the ground.
|
Mayday! Mayday! We¡¯re going down! Our blaze of glory¡¯s been found!
|
Sound the air raid Siren, hope is dying, hope is dying!
|
|
She was a first-class mistress.
|
|
When they skinned me alive you were not by my side
|
In a single dark room, they were singing the tune.
|
And when my tongue came out you were nowhere to be found.
|
|
I will not believe! You see you¡¯ve got something to prove to me.
|
I will not, I cannot, I do not believe. You see you¡¯ve got, you¡¯ve got something to prove to me.
|
|
So I need a jump-start, baby. I need a new heart, yeah?
|
I need a way to find myself without falling apart.
|
So I need a new mask maybe. This face just will not last.
|
I will seek you out; I will never bring you back.
|
|
I won¡¯t say your name.
