Lights Inside This Dream

There were lights inside this dream

Someone came here

And turned them out on me

Now it's dark and I can't see

There's always someone with

With something they need

And I give myself away

And the takers always take

And they wear my skin

Like a cape and fly around

With nothing to say

I crawled inside this room

Looking for somewhere

To heal these wounds

There's knocking at the door

There's always someone

Asking for more

And I give myself away

And the takers take what they take

And they wear my skin

Like a cape and fly around

With nothing to say

I burn myself inside

I found nowhere else to hide

But the burning caught their eyes

And they warm themselves

Around this dying fire

And I give myself away

And the takers always take

And I tried to walk away

But I lost my heart

And I lost my faith
