Hear my words and be confused
As you look into my eyes and feel my blues
Happiness is hiding from
The darkness to which my heart has clung
Oh, oh, lost control
I hold the answer, but my heart wants more
Don't even care what I've been fighting for
Dreams are there to hold me down
Forsaking the peace that I have found
So long as I hold onto sleep
It keeps me in darkness
I'll go on pretending
Hear my words and be confused
As you look into my eyes and feel my blues
Happiness is hiding from
The darkness to which my heart has clung
Oh, oh, lost control
To contentment I've said goodbye
There'll never be any compromise
As I fight for what could never be
And stir the fire that burns within me
It only takes but a moment
To destroy a life's work beyond all atonement
Hear my words and be confused
As you look into my eyes and feel my blues
Happiness is hiding from
The darkness to which my heart has clung
Oh, oh, lost control
Tearing down old walls to make space for new ones
Enjoying the comfort of being wrapped in illusions
Hear my words and be confused
As you look into my eyes and feel my blues
Happiness is hiding from
The darkness to which my heart has clung
Oh, oh, lost control
