(Steve Walsh / David Ragsdale)
|
Buried deep under blood and skin
|
A whisper a tempest is raging from within
|
I hold my breath bitter proud
|
Afraid to scream fire in the middle of a crowd
|
I ponder incision envision the brain
|
I beckon the surgeon to a slice against the grain
|
now that I've waisted you
|
the white room is pure the doctors are brave
|
If there's a cure I want to be saved
|
Sanctuary
|
|
Under the knife sharp and shiny key
|
Repair redeem resurrection
|
Under the knife they'll cut you out of me
|
Maybe love's imitation is life under the knife
|
|
I have come to determine a reasonable doubt
|
Where heaven and hell draw their boundary lines about
|
Now that I've waisted you now that I've tasted you
|
The white room had frost on the cold window pane
|
Your love had been lost my love was in vain
|
Sanctuary
|
|
Cynical splices stitch and install
|
Solder the filaments I feel nothing at all
|
Second wind secrets let them rise let them fall
|
I'll walk through your firestorm but never never crawl
|
The gambler lives the blood stain dries
|
It's time to forgive I open my eyes
|
Sanctuary
