[Lyrics]

 

I stand before you

Merely nothing

Stripped down to my very soul

I've left behind my inhibitions

Left my joy back at the door

I'm ready for the consequences

So can the sessions now begin?

They told me that I wasn't right

And only you would let me in

A pile of discarded wishes

Sits upon their cold stone floor

My broken wings now lay before you

They couldn't handle any more

The weight they made me carry on my shoulders

Along with all their sin

Has shut out all that lived in me,

Just my pain resides within

 

And here I am

They won't let me be

They told me I was broken,

'Cause they couldn't find the key

Into my inner workings

Even though they killed it all

So they want to send me up here

Just to see how far I'll fall

 

Can you tell me what's been eating me?

I didn't think there was

Anything still left inside me

That had been there all along

Because most of what I deal with

Wasn't there when I began

And now it's only from their bullshit

That I became sleight of hand

Can you tell me why I tremble?

Why these tears run down my face?

Will you tell me that I'm okay

And that I'm not just a disgrace?

I can feel the pulse within me

It's an icy, frigid cold

'Cause they kept me isolated

With a knife that I could hold

And all they said was "See what happens"

Before they just walked away

And when I didn't break the skin

They said that they'd send me your way

 

And here I am

They won't let me be

They told me I was broken,

'Cause they couldn't find the key

Into my inner workings

Even though they killed it all

So they want to send me up here

Just to see how far I'll fall

 

Can you tell me where the exit is

I think I might be cured

'Cause it's like I'm having feelings

Even though that sounds absurd

Because I walked in here with nothing

Now, consuming me is rage

Towards the people that abandoned me

Until I broke my cage

But I can swear that I'm not angry

I'm as calm as calm can be

In fact I think I'm feeling happy

So would you set me free?
