Lyrics
Vs 1
I run away
but I come back again
just like the prodigal son
I always say
this time the change is for good
but sooner or later I run
a fire burns within me/ cause I know I'm guilty
but You still forgive me, why
did an infadel like me
receive the mercy you give
Chorus
Creator of this shroud around me
take it from me
or take me out
this universe of space surrounds me
like a coffin
of/ cloud
free me from this
shroud
vs. 2
I feel trapped inside
this time and space and matter
pressed by its gravity under a spiritual sky
I search for a ladder
I feel as heroic as a
prisoner on a foreign shore
I'm claustrophobic in here
I can't stay here any more
Bridge
There's a fault in the bedrock
the plates are shifting
I stand in complete shock
as the ground is rifting
Here in the shadow
of skyscrapers tumbling
I cannot run because I am stumbling
Take me away, or
give me some wings
'cause I'm trapped
