Lyrics
Years have passed and I'm still broken
Body bruised on flesh I am choking
Tattooed and bound to my self-indulgent will
A curse that never sleeps - Inside a castle keep
I'll fade away
Drop dead and I'll call you gorgeous
Can't see the fire from the forest
I'll kill you before I show you kindness
A whore for every dream - in never ending streams
I'll hide away
I arrive too late for heaven
I stand too far from heaven
I'll be farthest from heaven
Displaced and all alone - This place I call my own
I spend my soul
Too late for heaven...
