VERSE
I thought I saw a man brought to life
He was warm; he came around like he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
VERSE
Well you couldn't be that man that I adored
You don't seem to know, seem to care, what your heart is for
But I don't know him anymore
PRE-CHORUS
There's nothing where he used to lie
My conversation has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's fine, I'm torn
CHORUS
I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
You're a little late
I'm already torn
VERSE
So I guess the fortune teller's right
I should've seen just what was there and not some holy light
But you crawled beneath my veins and now
PRE-CHORUS
I don't care, I have no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can touch, I'm torn
CHORUS
PRE-CHORUS
There's nothing where he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's fine, I'm torn
CHORUS
I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
Illusion never changed
Into something real
I'm wide awake and I can see the perfect sky is torn
I'm all out of faith
This is how I feel
I'm cold and I'm ashamed, bound and broken on the floor
You're a little late
I'm already torn
