lyrics

I cease to live within when I save my own skin
I want to change, but I won't, no, I won't
At least not today, I'll just run away
Still chained to the pen
I have killed with a knife all of those whom I have despised
I'm on the run, like a fugitive of the state
Oh, how I have bruised, oh, how I've abused
I've become what I hate

Won't you meet me halfway
Meet me halfway
Go easy on me

I can speak with eloquence, present a faultless defence
Give me a test, and I'll check off all of the points
But I have not love, and it's not enough
Like a body without joints
So fill me up with this love, my will below, others' above
Something that lasts, not some flash in the pan
But I'm a cracked cistern, and I am slow to learn
I'm a broken man

I've seen your face, but only in dreams
What's true? What's false? I can't see
But like roots breaking through stone just to reach for the stream
Will you get through to me?
Will you get through to me?
