"The Cave" lyrics

"The Cave"

There's so much loneliness
In everyone around you
I ran away to keep my head
From getting cloudy

Oh, I spent some time in a lonely place
But I'm only getting clearer
Need some time to be on my own
In a world without a mirror

Tie me up, hold me down
In a cage there's no unlocking
Leave a mark big enough
Let the bones fall out the sockets

But you still see me, crawling, hands and knees
Coming out through the mouth of a cave (Stuck in a mirror)
Coming out through the mouth of the cave

I see the creeping of the sun
On the horizon
First light is coming and there's
No more need for hiding

We'll spend some time in a lonely place
And I'm only getting higher
In the blackness of a broken heart
Oh, I found myself a fighter

Tie me up, hold me down
In a cage there's no unlocking
Leave a mark big enough
Let the bones fall out the sockets

But you still see me, crawling, hands and knees
Coming out through the mouth of a cave
Coming out through the mouth of a cave

Stuck in a mirror
Stuck in a mirror

Tie me up (Tie me up), hold me down (Hold me down)
In a cage there's no unlocking
Leave a mark (Leave a mark) big enough (Big enough)
Let the bones fall out the sockets

But you still see me, crawling, hands and knees
Coming out through the mouth of a cave (Stuck in a mirror)
Coming out through the mouth of a cave
