Lies are like stones. They sink in
Pull in the air you'll breathe in.
You can keep it inside,
The devil with reside if you let him.
Our hearts are all barricaded.
And the poisons will decorate it.
I want to know love
I want to be where you are.
So show me the way
I want to be like that
I want to hear you call my name,
And not look back.
'Cause all the faint lights,
They left me stranded and lost
Reaching through empty pockets,
Trying to pay my cost.
I put up a fight
And now it's taking its toll
Oh, I'm waiting for something to set fire
Wake up my soul.
All the people all trapped on freeways
With signs that say have it your way
We all lost track as soon as we got control.
So show me the way
I want to be like that
I want to hear you call my name,
And not look back.
'Cause all the faint lights,
They left me stranded and lost
Reaching through empty pockets,
Trying to pay my cost.
I put up a fight
And now it's taking its toll
Oh, I'm waiting for something to set fire
Wake up my soul.
Oh oh
When the weight is on,
I feel alone
Trapped inside my flesh and bones.
But if I let go of everything
A song to sing
A song for-- all the faint lights
They left me stranded and lost
Reaching through empty pockets trying to pay my cost.
I put up a fight
Oh oh
Now it's taking its toll.
Oh
I'm waiting for something to set fire
Wake up my soul.
