lyrics

It is now familiar
This little game I play
I’m split down the middle
Because of anything you say

A lake of fire
Or a sea of sin
I’m diving in

I pick up the pieces
Like I knew I should
Put them all together
Never felt so good

Inch by inch I place them
Back where they belong
All those fragile pieces
Will be lost before too long

What is real or not real
What is just a fact
I inch my way across the line
And do my balance act

I survey the damage
Decide what I will keep
It’s a large collection
That carries me to sleep

A lake of fire
Or a sea of sin
I’m diving in

Break what has been broken
Fix but never heal
It’s time to face the angels
With all that I conceal
Sew it all together
By myself again
Miles and miles of thread to go
Before I reach the end

A lake of fire
Or a sea of sin
I’m diving in
