Drag my face through the dirt again
I know right where I belong
For you're a constant reminder
of all the rights that i've wronged
OH, give me the strength to move this mountain
to block this line of sight.
this was more than i could ask for,
tear down the sky.
black out, black out, black out the sky
sever, sever these ties.
As you further your tragedy
to prove to me you're alive
sooner or later we'll have to choose
from this, a new set of lies.
OH, give me the strength to flood this valley,
to wash my hands of you.
This was more than I could ask for,
tear down the sky.
black out, black out, black out the sky,
sever, sever these ties.
So here I stand, this battered path laid out before me
And noone said this would be easy, but it's something i must do for myself
it's going to be a long, a long hard road
NO, i will let go, this time it feels so right to forget.
This was more than I could ask for,
tear down the sky.
black out, black out, black out the sky,
sever, sever these ties.
So here i stand, this battered man laid out before you,
and no one said this would be easy, but it's something i must do for myself
it's going to be a long, a long hard road
which I, will walk, alone
I, will walk alone.
I know right where I belong
