"Wishing For Wounds" lyrics

"Wishing For Wounds"

In my heart, there is a wounded angel
Locked away where my secrets hide
Long ago, we were wide-eyed and fragile
Some days I swear I can still hear your cry

This is no place for a miserable child
Sent from above to a world where it's gone wild
You'll never escape from your desolate home
You're wishing for wounds
Because it's all that you've ever known
This is no place for you
This is no place

You've made friends with the
Cobwebs and shadows
Writing with your blood on the wall
Long ago, we were sheep to the slaughter
I wish that I saved you from it all

This is no place for a miserable child
Sent from above to a world where it's gone wild
You'll never escape from your desolate home
You're wishing for wounds
Because it's all that you've ever known
This is no place for you
This is no place

This is no place for a miserable child
Sent from above to a world where it's gone wild
You'll never escape from your desolate home
You're wishing for wounds
Because it's all that you've ever known
This is no place for you
This is no place
