Welcome to my lair
Wouldn't you like to stay?
In my care, I'm sure that you would be okay
Tell me, if you dare, to dream a little dream
There's not much room or time to spare
In this endless nightmare
They say the heart is the hardest part
To heal once a wound is placed
When the wound is gone, the soul's still scarred
Its memories can never be erased
Welcome to my lair
Nothing is what it seems
I'm drowning in a sea of despair
In this endless nightmare
How can you go on living without a dream?
Now you've come here
What is it you hope to find?
This is the last place your eyes will ever see
There's nowhere to go from here
In this endless nightmare
The secrets I'm guarding, I'll never tell
The waters I'm parting will save me from this hell
Oh, I'll go on praying for better days
And I'll keep delaying till I'm past this phase
In the darkest of shadows, hope's still alive
I'll relive this battle until the day I die
I am uncertain of where I've been
Please don't close the curtain
Until I've reached the end
This is the story of how my dreams were lost
Instead of reaping the benefits
I'm paying the cost
I had a vision of greatness in my head
That is where my dreams lie dead
In this endless nightmare
They say the heart is the hardest part
To heal once a wound is placed
When the wound is gone, the soul's still scarred
Its memories can never be erased
Welcome to my lair
Now do you understand?
I have no reason more to care
This is where your dreams end
Now listen to me
It seems I've been obsessed
Why can't you see the reasons
That I'm so depressed?
Nothing should matter
What's done is done and gone
But is there no one who can make things better?
I'm waiting for your answer
I have a vision I see every night
It's not my decision to relive this plight
I'm out on a thin ledge, losing my ground
A recurring image that always brings me down
I will not remain behind these walls
But no one is to blame, 'twas I who took the fall
Entering this hollow was my choice alone
So why should I follow
The path that you have shown?
They say the heart is the hardest part
To heal once a wound is placed
When the wound is gone, the soul's still scarred
Its memories can never be erased
