[00:00.00]

[01:03:00]A helping hand leaves no trace
[01:07:00]Of how it pulls you into its embrace
[01:12:00]A tired mind disbelieves
[01:16:00]All the things your eyes can see

[01:20:00]A scornful word turns away
[01:25:00]The loving touch that lets you stay
[01:29:00]A tortured soul reaches out
[01:33:00]For the words you dare not shout

[01:37:00]Dreaming a dying dream
[01:45:00]Screaming a silent scream

[01:52:00]

[01:59:00]Let the anger rise
[02:08:00]Hear the distant cries
[02:16:00]And when you're finally blind
[02:23:00]Take my eyes

[02:26:00]

[02:50:00]Fading away and feeling inside out
[02:54:00]Reaching toward the darkness for a way to lift the doubt
[02:58:00]All these things that I nail to your door
[03:02:00]Could start your revolution
[03:04:00]Will you sink or swim to shore?

[03:07:00]Never-ending
[03:11:00]Everlasting death

[03:17:00]

[03:24:00]Flashing before your eyes
[03:32:00]These empty careful lies
[03:39:00]

[03:46:00]Let the anger rise
[03:55:00]Hear the distant cries
[04:03:00]And when you're finally blind
[04:10:00]Take my eyes

[04:13:00]

[04:16:00]You wonder why
[04:20:00]It took so long
[04:25:00]You wonder why
[04:28:00]You don't belong
[04:32:00]When every time you couldn't stand to be alone
[04:41:00]You felt the coldness of its touch
[04:46:00]Pulling you down

[04:50:00]And when the fear gets too much to bear alone
[04:59:00]The blackened hand reaches out and won't let go
[05:07:00]The body weakens the mind
[05:14:00]Until the darkness takes your eyes
[05:18:00]And makes you blind

[05:24:00]

[09:14:00]A scattered mind in disarray
[09:19:00]Cannot find the light in each new day
[09:23:00]A broken heart can finally rest
[09:27:00]Having failed each and every test

[09:31:00]A mournful tear cascading down
[09:35:00]The iron cheek that wears a frown
[09:40:00]A humbled man leaves no trace
[09:44:00]Of how he longed for your embrace

[09:47:00]Dreaming your final dream
[09:56:00]Cast out the silent scream

[10:03:00]

[10:12:00]Let the anger rise
[10:20:00]Hear the distant cries
[10:29:00]And when you're finally blind
[10:36:00]Finally blind

[10:45:00]

[10:48:00]Take my eyes

[10:56:00]
