Lyrics

Verse
I have laughed 'til I was cryin'
Cried 'til I was a joke
I have burned with Holy Fire
And I've languished in its smoke

Pre-chorus
But the feeling I'm now feelin'
Is the feeling that there's none.
And I would choose the deepest anguish over feeling numb.

Chorus
If it's water let it drench me
And if it's fire let it burn
And if it's gonna take the winds of time to chafe me til I learn...
Let me learn to feel again.

Verse
Never trusted my emotions
So I boarded up the door.
Trouble is when I went for them
They were not there anymore

Pre-chorus
Cold is fine until the night comes
And your stone blanket can't be hewed.
Starving's fine until you're hungry and there is no food.

Bridge (pre-chorus form)
Cold is fine until the night comes
And your last thread has been removed
And here I am, naked and hungry, and still as yet unmoved
