My heart in my hand
Left open to you
Time flows like sand
Held fast and true
I will never
Push you away
Even though I can't
Find what to say
I can never be alone
With you right by my side
I've traveled far from home
With your love inside
I stare down this road
I can't see an end
As these long kept secrets
Have become my friends
Lost from these words
Are the tears I can't hide
As I fall upon swords
That I've left far behind
I can never be alone
With you right by my side
I've traveled far from home
With your love inside
As I take to the road
Well beaten beneath my feet
I flashback through the times
That I'd rather not repeat
Your iron hand will fail
And your kingdom is a lie
The sins you can't confess
Come to focus in my eye
I won't live through your hate
I won't turn out like you
I will leave outstretched these hands of fate
I will make my own truths
This spilled cup of hope
Stains like it's bitter-wine
The water that I drink
Won't heal the wounds of time
Your iron hand will fail
And your kingdom is a lie
The sins you can't confess
Come to focus in my eye
I won't live through your hate
I won't turn out like you
I will leave outstretched these hands of fate
I will make my own truths
I wish I could take back these words
I'll never really see it right
Freer than the flight of birds
I'm too tired now to fight
I try to wish it all away
But who would care to listen
As the words of wise men say
Love's light upon life glistens
Finding me against the world
I'll never let you go
This pain inside is now unfurled
Hate is all I've ever known
Between the time of pasts removed
A future set in stone
Now left of this nothingness
Is in my mind alone
In all the times of memories
Left shattered in my soul
And in all its simplicity
My world is swallowed whole
Finding me against the world
I'll never let you go
This pain inside is now unfurled
Hate is all i've ever known
