Lyrics

I’m reaching in to pull them out
The feelings that I keep
I watch as the bloody tide runs deep

Choosing words, familiar verbs
Emotion seems to part
You control the matters of the heart

But when the walls of poison tumble down
I’ll be standing on the ground
Alone you’ll be inside your room
Hiding from your day of doom

Cut the throat that sings the notes
But you won’t silence me
Sell your arms and doomsday charms
But keep the money clean

‘Cause when … (Chorus)

Doubting Thomases, broken promises
It makes no difference to your creed
Lying to my face, words you can’t erase
The end will justify the means

(lead)

You can give a bleak response to pictures you conceive
Anything is effortless as long as you believe
Choosing words, familiar verbs
Emotion seems to part
You control the matters of the heart

‘Cause when … (Chorus)
