My Other Life
When I wake up at night
Remembering my other life,
I scream.
If I could find a way don't you believe
That I'd be there today?
But for my clever mind, to punish me,
I'm trapped inside this black design
My eyes are gallows and my heart's a nervous wreck
Trapped in confusion all around me I forget
My real name,
But they call me profane.
When I had angry eyes
To see beyond the veil of lies was nothing,
But now they're baby blue and don't see any answers,
I'm as blind as you.
If what they say is true then anything can happen
There are no border lines.
Tho' deep inside I hold the child I think I am,
My hands were midwife to the hell I'm living in.
Oh believe me,
I'm running out of time.
When I wake up at night
Remembering my other life,
I scream.
But every dawning day the faith in me
beyond my reach more distant fades.
My eyes are gallows and my heart's a nervous wreck
My cries are fondled by the hangman's deadly kiss
Oh believe me,
I'm running out of
