If you can find my hearts' location,
There's a simple explanation.
I'm a toymakers' creation,
Trapped inside a crystal ball.
Catch me before I fall.
And whichever way I tilt it,
I know I have to be resilient.
I can't let it break my spirit
As I cry it all away.
All of my clouds fade to gray.

My mind is a closed door
And sanity is nevermore.
Is it my brain your hearing?
Are the screams in your ears ringing?

I'm alone in this game.
There's blood coming from my brain.
Holes and stuffing in my veins. ...

I know there's something in my way,
But I don't know what to do.
Maybe there's something I could say
That can get me to crawl back to you.
Give me the strength I do need
To bring me back to life.
Give me the courage that I couldn't see
When I held you by a knife.
Oh, this trail gets thinner.

I need some peace of mind before my time here is up.
I walk around the pond to see what remains of our love.
These trails inspire a little hope, or lack thereof.
Falling from the sky are feathers and a dead dove.

Please, give me...

Philosophy can't describe this occurrence.
Hopefully it's a phase and it'll be gone.
I think I've dug this whole plenty too deep.
I hope and pray to God above that this issue is solved.

There's someone coming into my room.
How can I escape this tomb.
Seeds of preference are in bloom.
Yearning to be f**king you too.
 
There's an intruder in my house,
Wearing a ski mask and he is brandishing a gun.
I wake my self up and I hide like a coward.
If he shoots he'll have to reload so everyone can run.
