As the sun goes up over broken dreams of Eden   And she wakes up slowly from the chains that tied her mind   She walks down past the bound that said forever   down the road back home to the ones she left behind   I've been hanging on threads of emotion   I've been lost in a riddle so deep   I've been blinded by my own devotion   I've been running down this dead end street   All I wanted was a house on the mountain   we could play like the king and queen   Never wanted the world on my shoulders   Never wanted this brutal awakening   This brutal awakening   On a bed of nails you see no face of freedom   Still you hang on to dreams of something you'll never find   When you're in that deep you sacrifice your vision   yeah you loose your sight pretending you're not blind   I've been hanging on threads of emotion   I've been lost in a riddle so deep   I've been blinded by my own devotion   I've been running down this dead end street   All I wanted was a house on the mountain   we could play like the king and queen   Never wanted the world on my shoulders   Never wanted this brutal awakening   This brutal awakening   So you closed the door on the one there to receive you   Then you slowly drifted away on your own   Now you reach out for the same one to release you   Yeah you've finally seen that this bird has not yet flown   I've been hanging on threads of emotion   I've been lost in a riddle so deep   I've been blinded by my own devotion   I've been running down this dead end street   All I wanted was a house on the mountain   we could play like the king and queen   Never wanted the world on my shoulders   Never wanted this brutal awakening   All I wanted was a key to your kingdom   we could play like the king and queen   Never wanted the world on my shoulders   Never wanted this brutal awakening   This brutal awakening   This brutal awakening
