Another night alone in an empty room
With nothing but the echo of my breathing
The sound of my heart dying too soon
The coldness of death and all the grieving

Wadded balls of paper with written nonsense
Scattered along the burnt carpet on the floor
There goes my soul as it goes I'm a mess
I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be looking for

I'm a mess broken inside a caved in wall
I just might be losing my sanity
After all the hurt loneliness and pain
The death my eyes and heart can't stand it all
I feel my sanity slipping away

Sat down at the edge of a broken box spring
Strung my fingers on the guitar that I can't play
Sing out a song just to get out what I've held in
No one will ever know the glow that doesn't stay

Through the broken glass of the window
A twisted storm brews an unthinkable kind of rage
I'm to blame as the burdens of the winds blow
Nothing left but the self built rusty old cage

I'm a mess broken inside a caved in wall
I just might be losing my sanity
After all the hurt loneliness and pain
The death my eyes and heart can't stand it all
I feel my sanity slipping away

How the hell did I slip into this moment
The years went by so fast I lost track of time
I don't remember the last time I was content
Where ground was sturdy and life was alive and fine

There blows the roof go ahead and take me away
Knock me cold until I reach my final destination
End the war in my head the love my heart gives away
I'm but another lost soul with a haunted relation

I'm a broken mess inside a caved in wall
I just might be losing my sanity
After all the hurt loneliness and pain
The death my eyes and heart can't stand it all
I feel my sanity slipping away

Nothing left but a self built rusty old cage
No roof no floor no walls just dusty remains
Here I lay holding the last written page
With the ink of my heart that wrote my pain
