From The Bottom Of My Heart

Fire on the porch on a summer's nightAll of my things are there insideBlack smoke rise up, burn on burn higherI smell leaves and burning tiresDogs in the meadows barking wildBlackbird rise up, tell me what have you doneI'm not drunk and I'm not sadThere's nothing inside that I want backLet me touch your lips, let me see where you're atDo you wonder how I am tonightThen don't lose time looking in my eyesNot every tear means you're gonna cryFrom the bottom of my heartComes a cold dark feelingThere is nothing but dustIn the layers I'm peelingFrom the bottom of my heartBeats a rattling drumMarching back up the stepsInto the rays of the sunUnder crushing skies of graysParalyzed with phantom painsBefore this room became just a placeWhere I just sleep through endless daysSpinning webs and carving namesWhere thoughts break up, exploding in spaceBut I once crossed a quarter mileThrough black pools of razor wireAnd cut through the steelwith the edge of a fileWhile singing rhaphsodies in strideHellbent and dignifiedNow my time has comeWho you fooling and why?From the bottom of my heartComes a cold dark feelingThere is eminent deathto the promise I'm keepingFrom the bottom of my heartComes an army of oneMarching back up the stepsInto the rays of the sunPale-faces and hollowed eyesBuried under ruptured skiesNot every smilemeans I'm laughing insideTwo-face and compromisedI've enraptured you with liesEverything means nothingsand tonight everything is mineFrom the bottom of my heartComes a cold dark feelingI have buried so muchIn the layers I'm peelingFrom the bottom of my heartA battle will comeMarching back up the stepsInto the rays of the sunFrom the bottom of my heartComes a cold dark feelingWrapped around tightWith no sign of leavingFrom the bottom of my heartA ballad is sungThrough a whisper she comesInto the rays of the sun
