Lyrics
Open your eyes . look straight ahead
I'm standing here before you but you think that I'm dead
Maybe I am . I'm trapped in these walls
And you see right through me, like crystal
I see the signs, see your face
Without a warning she's taken my place
Are we really through? Has your love really gone?
Already to another, it's oh so wrong
Only been a week . or a day . or a year
I just don't know and nothing is clear
Reality has changed, a new path to explore
Is it mine . or yours . I can't tell anymore
Still want you for mine, am I being fair?
Hey, I'm still here . so I don't care
(Chorus)
From afar I cry, unable to obtain
The love that surrounds me so pure and so plain
Searching in the darkness, searching in the light
Doesn't matter in the end it's constantly a fight
See me . hear me . please bring me home
Stranded in this hell . I'm all alone
Look at me now, watch how I fall
But you see right through me . like crystal
Another existence, the choice wasn't mine
The life that I had . all left behind
Maybe someday . somehow . somewhere
The fog will disappear and I'll breathe clean air
Until that time, the question remains
Will we meet again . will I be free from pain?
Yeah . I'm trapped in a prison, chained to the ground
How life has moved on without me around
Just so confused, nowhere to go
I'm playing with torture, but why I don't know
(Chorus)
From afar I cry, unable to obtain
The love that surrounds me so pure and so plain
Searching in the darkness, searching in the light
Doesn't matter in the end it's constantly a fight
See me . hear me . please bring me home
Stranded in this hell . I'm all alone
Look at me now, watch how I fall
But you see right through me . like crystal
(Guitar Solo)
Can I escape from this frozen spell?
All I have now is a living hell
How do I feel, now that you're free?
Tears me apart . insanity.
(Chorus)
From afar I cry, unable to obtain
The love that surrounds me so pure and so plain
Searching in the darkness, searching in the light
Doesn't matter in the end it's constantly a fight
See me . hear me . please bring me home
Stranded in this hell . I'm all alone
Look at me now, watch how I fall
But you see right through me . like crystal
