How I wish I could surrender my soul;
Shed the clothes that become my skin;
See the liar that burns within my needing.
How I wish I'd chosen darkness from cold.
How I wish I had screamed out loud,
Instead I've found no meaning.
I guess it's time I run far, far away;
Find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same:
It just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say, but I'm not here for trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.
How I wish I could walk through
The doors of my mind;
Hold memory close at hand,
Help me understand the years.
How I wish I could choose between Heaven and Hell
How I wish I would save my soul.
I'm so cold from fear.
I guess it's time I run far, far away; find comfort in pain,
All pleasure's the same:
It just keeps me from trouble.
Hides my true shape, like Dorian Gray.
I've heard what they say,
But I'm not here for trouble.
Far, far away; find comfort in pain.
All pleasure's the same:
It just keeps me from trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.
Far, far away; find comfort in pain.
All pleasure's the same:
It just keeps me from trouble.
It's more than just words: it's just tears and rain.
