lyrics

I've been stranded for so long,
That I built my home in hell,
I've been trying to gather things,
To decorate my cell

I thought that you'd fill the void,
Although I withheld,
When I said you betrayed me,
I know that I betrayed myself

As much as I love you,
I don't know what love is,
You're so much more than I'll ever see
As much as you hurt me,
I don't know what hurt is,
It's so much deeper than I care to see

I speak til I'm aware,
These words are built to fail,
These symbols will not lift the veil

I'm ready and waiting,
My time only seems to crawl,
Your eyes and ears and hands,
They still won't take my call

When will love be pure,
and not a means to learn?
Somehow in forgetting you,
My memory returns

As much as I love you,
I don't know what love is,
You're so much more than I'll ever see
As much as you hurt me,
I don't know what hurt is,
It's so much deeper than I care to see

I speak til I'm aware,
These words are built to fail,
These symbols will not lift the veil

As much as you love me,
I don't know what love is
You're so much more than I'll ever see
As much as I hurt you,
I don't know what hurt is,
It's so much deeper than I care to see

I speak til I'm aware,
These words are built to fail,
this time I swear I'll lift the veil

It'll be like nothing ever happened
