it's been a long road
been a long time
been dusty and tired
in all this grime
I can't get clean
no matter how I try
I'm dirty through and through
and I wanna die
then I think about you
and what you're doing with your life
whatever it is
do you think it's alright
do you think
that nobody knows
those secrets that you hold
so close so close
so close to you
that you just can't breath
if they ever found out
it'd make you scream
and shout right out loud
that it wasn't real
someone else is to blame
for the things that you feel
you hold a cold black heart
in the palm of your hand
why can't the others
understand
so...
now you've made it this far
with nothing but love
you paved a few roads
and you messed a few up
still you're standing
with your face in a mirror
the picture you see
isn't all that clear
and you watch the tears
wash away your fears
bring in the light
you are forgiven
all of your sins
He's touched you
from within
and you're so close
so close so close
so close to you
been a long road...
