how i wish i could
surrender my soul
shed the clothes that become my skin
see the light that burns within my meaning
how i wish i’d chosen
darkness from cold
how i wish i’d screamed out loud
instead i found no meaning
i guess it’s time i run
far far away
find comfort in pain
all pleasure’s the same
it just keeps me from trouble
hides my true shame
like dorian gray
i’ve heard what they say
but i’m not here for trouble
it’s more than just words
it’s just
tears and rain
how i wish i could walk through
the doors of my mind
hold memory close at hand
help me understand the years
(how i wish you were here)
how i wish i could choose between
heaven and hell
how i wish i would save my soul
so cold from fear
i guess it’s time i run
far far away
find comfort in pain
all pleasure’s the same
it just keeps me from trouble
hides my true shame
like dorian gray
i’ve heard what they say
but i’m not here for trouble
far far away
i’ve heard what they say
but i’m not here for trouble
it’s more than just words
it’s just tears and rain
tears and rain
tears and rain
far far away
find comfort in pain
all pleasure’s the same
it just keeps me from trouble
it’s more than just words
it’s just tears and rain
