Caught by the Nails Lyrics

I'm watching landscapes under moonlight
Cos I'm so tired of dark days
I can't sleep at night or bear the sight again
I never fail to wake up memories
That should be dreaming
They tip the scales the wrong way every time
I just feel like crying out
Why was it ever so
Why
When you're reaching out for reason
Caught by the nails
Caught by the nails
Torn right through your sails
Why can reality lie
When you feel like you're ascending
Caught by the nails
Caught by the nails
Falling through the rails
I never mean to end up choosing
The door to more
But this machine has got me losing
The cards I never had
I thought I'd cracked the code
And opened a safe surrounding
But life attacked from all sides far too well
It's straight back to hell again

The luck never flows it comes and it goes
But god only knows why it never comes in
I'm trying to see who else I could be
But maybe it's me that's forgotten to win
With eyes on the prize I told myself lies
And now I despise what I've almost become
Uncertainty taints the patience of saints
And with these constraints I find myself with none
So take away the dreams of freedom
I won't be needing
Before you say goodbye and close the door
Just stop and question

Why...
