Veins of glass

These ghosts I keep inside
Shards of glass in my veins
Release me from myself, release
From my duality

I face this as a soldier would
But useless is my war
The innocence that smiles today
Tomorrow will be lying

Who is that really dies, when all
The people look at me?
And I'm twisting my fingers in my hair
While a mirror reflects me

Now I'm digging to the bone, all the painting
Scratching at flesh, drives me mad, to be alive
Now I'm digging to the bone, all the painting
Scratching at flesh, drives me mad, to be alive and free

These ghosts I keep inside
Shards of glass in my veins
Release me from myself, release
From my duality

And the ghosts I keep inside myself
How do they see me?
While again I'm drowning with my soul
You will save me?

Now I'm digging to the bone, all the painting
Scratching at flesh, drives me mad, to be alive
Now I'm digging to the bone, all the painting
Scratching at flesh, drives me mad, to be alive and free

I face this as a soldier would
But useless is my war
The innocence that smiles today
Tomorrow will be lying

Who is that really dies, when all
The people look at me?
And I'm twisting my fingers in my hair
While a mirror reflects me

Now I'm digging to the bone, all the painting
Scratching at flesh, drives me mad, to be alive
Now I'm digging to the bone, all the painting
Scratching at flesh, drives me mad, to be alive and free
