I found no peace Lived like a shy fearful child I couldn't feel a thing Unless it was suffered gladly Somehow for atonement An ever nameless dread And it's not like I lived it It's like I read about it In someone else's book And I know this is foolish But it etches in - to the fibre of your heart Hold it right there I'm gonna show you something pure And I could always have stayed there Never to have played my hand The Lament for the Numb The battle memory remains here Only to be fought and won The Lament for the Numb And now the journey repays me Lose all the baggage for one The Lament for the Numb The Lament for the Numb And now she breathes on me And I'm so full of fire To burn a trail ahead If this is just a moment It's alright I cupped my hands Forever round your heart If this is what it feels like Forever round your heart Hold it right there I'm gonna show you something pure And you could always remain here If only to walk by my side - The Lament for the Numb And you will always remain here Never to suffer my pride The Lament for the Numb And there is so much to gain here Lose all the demons and lies The Lament for the Numb And with a love running deeper I won't tag along for the ride The Lament for the Numb The Lament for the Numb It's not like I lived it The Lament for the Numb It's just like I lived it
