I keep waiting for my heart to feel at home To settle down from the way it wanders and roams Permanently stuck in a temporary life I’m always searching for a better high Can’t make this knot in my chest go away Will fear forever have the final say? I’m losing my mind in this prison of doubt I once got lost and I might never be found Holding on to hope I’ve been destined to lose Don’t be fooled, we’re never allowed to choose Comfortably numb without any dreams Ignoring passion in attempt to appease Redemption long ago lost its appeal I finally realized fairy tales aren’t real No purpose, no pleasure, just simply mundane No matter the washing, scarlet stains remain Well, I’m uncomfortable in my own skin They say my lack of faith is a sin A tortured soul needs a little grace To look in the mirror and face her face
