Lyrics
It's so different now,
So confusing, so grey.
No-one was waiting here,
With a light on for me.
A fog wraps me up,
Takes me away.
From the rest that I see,
From the rest I so need.
Company given,
And taken away from me.
Once again,
The same old story.
Born without the eyes to see you.
Born without the mind to conceive you.
Born without the air to breathe you.
Reborn into a world without you.
Colour's drained,
From everything.
A smiling face,
Is not all that it seems.
Masks the demons,
That hunt deep inside.
Casts illusions,
The others provide.
Who needs me,
Because I don't.
So sick of,
The face that makes me.
Born without the eyes to see you.
Born without the mind to conceive you.
Born without the air to breathe you.
Reborn into a world without you.
Hold me down,
Under water,
So I can breathe,
Sweet surrender.
Hold me down,
I will not struggle,
Until you feel,
Me let go.
This world of grey,
Is not my home,
Is not my friend,
'Cause I'm alone.
Please don't leave,
Please don't leave me here,
Alone,
Alone without you.
Born without the eyes to see you.
Born without the mind to conceive you.
Born without the air to breathe you.
Reborn into a world without you.
