   Is it this place that makes me fall from you 	
                                                           
   Forget the words that once rang so true
                                       
Did we expect that life was ever fair, my god
                                                                         
I sowed a field of rose and reaped a whipping rod

                                                
And everything I've held too tight inside

Could make a part of me die
                                          
And if my lips could only speak the name

The dam would break

   (x2)

                                                               
  What is this ice that gathers round my heart
                                                                
  To stop the flood of warmth before it even starts
                                                               
It would make me blind to what I thought would always be
                                      
The only constant in the world for me

                                                
And every hour of every day I need to

fight from pulling away
                                             
And if my mind could only loose the chain

The dam would break

                                          
For all the things I hid away
                                  
And all the words I could not say

The dam would break
