The sun goes down on the winter scene
And then I start to cry
The stars at night
won't shine me their light
leaving me unable to see

The rain takes our sunny days
Until we have none
The clock strikes noon
Are you leaving so soon
won't you please take me away

Chorus:
I'm waist deep in sorrow
And I don't want to hurt no more
Well babe, I hope you understand
And come back tomorrow

I see the world and the wind as it blows
As the charlatans sing me their lies
But they won't hold fast
as time wanders past
only truth will show you your gold

Minor chords are all that I hear
In my sleep induced trance
The benevolent minds
are wasting their time
acting like there's nothing to fear

As my words die and my melody fades
And my heart turns to stone
My soul is gone
Is there anyone
trying to make me stay

Chorus
