Nothing is sacred anymore
For you have helped me forsake
Everything I once held true
For every inch I drove
Piercing nails in those hands
You drove them in an extra inch
For every foot I wandered off course
You led me a foot further astray
And when I was perfectly confused
Your guiding hand was gone
And my shame returned in multitudes
And the broken pieces of my life
Were still left laying on the ground
But my iniquity led me
Somewhere it's never before
It led me back onto the beaten path
Strange as it may sound
With a crowbar in my hand
As I expend the extra effort
To pull those nails out of the hands
That should've never had to take them
In the first place

Wishing You Knew
I wish you knew
Where my heart was
Or what I was thinking
But you are oblivious
And I am still right here
I wish you felt
The way I felt right now
And the hope I have
But I know you can't
And it leaves me in fear
I wish I could share
What was going on
So that you might understand
But you won't listen
And I won't speak to deaf ears
I wish you knew
That I loved you
Or that I knew more than you thought
But you probably don't care
And I'll probably stay right here
Where my heart was
Or what I was thinking
But you are oblivious
And I am still right here
I wish you felt
The way I felt right now
And the hope I have
But I know you can't
And it leaves me in fear
I wish I could share
What was going on
So that you might understand
But you won't listen
And I won't speak to deaf ears
I wish you knew
That I loved you
Or that I knew more than you thought
But you probably don't care
And I'll probably stay right here
In Dreams
Get out of my head
I'm so sick of you
Haunting my dreams
Leaving me believing
Something I can't believe
I'm so tired of seeing your face
And hearing your voice
And knowing it's not real
Only in dreams
Forever in dreams
We're so far apart
In this short distance
If I screamed to you
You wouldn't hear me
Not even in dreams
Your touch is far removed
From my memory
I'm only left with an echo of your voice
And these few pictures
To revive your memory in dreams
I'm so sick of you
Haunting my dreams
Leaving me believing
Something I can't believe
I'm so tired of seeing your face
And hearing your voice
And knowing it's not real
Only in dreams
Forever in dreams
We're so far apart
In this short distance
If I screamed to you
You wouldn't hear me
Not even in dreams
Your touch is far removed
From my memory
I'm only left with an echo of your voice
And these few pictures
To revive your memory in dreams
