I'm picking at my wounds again Sleeping in a silent grave With the broken words we said Here with me I’m deep inside the hole again The place our lover’s bed was made The ghost of you inside my head Here with me I still have dreams of you inside my arms And I’m sleeping so calm Then I wake up to find I am all alone In my old man home I’m screaming in an open cage Not leaving coz I’m too afraid Of losing the one love I made Here with you Freedom given to the slave But the lover’s bed it still remains It’s master still calls out my name Come to me I’m sleeping with a ghost again I still have dreams of you inside my arms And I’m sleeping so calm Then I wake up to find I am all alone In my old man home

Verse 1 It’s something automatic I know it sounds dramatic I know all the things you want I know all the things you want Maybe I’m crazy It’s something symptomatic Maybe I'm just an addict I know all the things you want I know all the things you want Maybe, I’m crazy Chorus 1 You were so afraid Tried to get away Nothing I could say Could make you stay with me The more thoughts raced The more I would chase The more I would make You run away from me I know, you know I can’t go on this way Verse 2 I made you my religion A soothing kind of fiction You were everything I want You were everything I want Maybe I went crazy Another lover’s vision Another broken mirror It’s not like I thought it was It’s not like I thought it was Baby, I'm still crazy Chorus 2 So long ago We were all alone Now it’s all oh So very hazy But I’m still awake And still, I wait For you to come along and save me I know, you know I can’t go on this way Something tells me I will be alone forever and ever I will set you free I will let you be

I must have been mistaken I thought I heard the war drums ring As thoughtless as a fallen leaf on the ground A star each day is taken The sky is still filled with freedom But one day is naked and underground We are all evil in the future Shadows lay on oceans Reflect the fate of all mankind All our great devotions now cease to be Woken in the dead of night The sound of howling wolves outside No babe is safe tonight Pray for me Innocence is in our heads Longing for the things we had Here now in the foreground Essence in the falling glass Forming in their thoughtless hearts They’re here now in the foreground We are all evil in the future

I can't help the dark thoughts I have inside Feeling the grip of the violence in my mind Constantly longing just to feel alright I know that time is now not on my side I will never feel it again Feel again Instrument Of Love In the red light Willingness to leave me Instrument Of Love In the red light Willingness to leave me Angel. You're my instrument of love Angel. You're my instrument of love I’m so broken I can’t believe my life Too long years alone have been so unkind The empty hole that your love once occupied The child inside me searches for the divine Will I ever feel it again? Feel again Instrument Of Love In the red light Willingness to leave me Instrument Of Love In the red light Willingness to leave me Angel. You're my instrument of love Angel. You're my instrument of love No More
