Lyrics

Looking at the mirror, asking questions with old, weary eyes Once a girl who had no name dressed as an angel in disguise From the corner of her bedroom light illuminates Crawling shadows, cut out silhouettes With the darkness, a dancing marionette Smiled away with such a beauty ever seen before Drowned by rain of thorns and petals falling at her curtain call This mortal coil, year after year recalled a sad charade Like a shadow play we can't forget In the darkness, a crying marionette Make me believe I must go on Life is a warning Don't want to risk it anymore I want to leave This place so wrong It left me terrified to lose All I am living for Alone, imprisoned by the echoes of the empty hall She made a deal with the enemy and let her fences fall From the dust she build a door to frame new memories Once a shadow, dancing with her fears Lights the darkness, now the puppeteer Make me believe I must go on Life is a warning Don't want to risk it anymore I want to leave This place so wrong It left me terrified to lose All I am living for There's a world inside we are holding the keys One day at a time not trying to please Tell me of anything that is lasting forever You are your thoughts What are we waiting for? Make me believe I must go on Life is a warning Don't want to risk it anymore I want to leave This place so wrong (this place so wrong) It left me terrified to lose All I am living for I want to leave This place so wrong (this place so wrong) It left me terrified to lose All I am living for (living for) Make me believe I must go on Life is a warning Don't want to risk it anymore
