My chest is open
|
My heart's on the ground
|
My bare feet soaked in my blood
|
as I leave you without a sound
|
No one to reach for even though I stretched too far
|
No one sky to warm me up
|
as darkness clouds the blue
|
|
I'm leaving
|
I couldn't live with the shame
|
No more denying
|
I've stopped the search for blame
|
Heading for virgin soil
|
Set foot on sacred ground
|
and with no one to reach for
|
No no one
|
|
Twentyseven years of falling
|
Twentyseven winters slave
|
Twentyseven years of dreaming
|
and this is all the strength life gave
|
Twentyseven summers weaker
|
and the autumn's just the same
|
Twentyseven years...
|
|
And if you'd ask then I'd deny that
|
I didn't have the strength to fight that drowning weakness
|
And I buried all signs to cover what I feel underneath
|
the hollow remains of me
|
|
My chest is open
|
My heart's on the ground
|
My bare feet soaked in my blood
|
as I leave you without a sound
|
And there will be no tomorrow
|
Won't see the light of day
|
No more pain and no sorrow
|
I'm free from the words that you could say
|
|
Twentyseven years of falling
|
Twentyseven winters slave
|
Twentyseven years of dreaming
|
and this is all the strength life gave
|
Twentyseven summers weaker
|
and the autumn's just the same
|
Twentyseven years...
