As I Lie Here Bleeding
Evergrey · Night To Remember: Live 2004 [2005]
That leads me down into my fate
So father please forgive me
As I cannot see it end
I am now up on the table
It trembles under my weight
I wipe away the cold sweat
Close my eyes &...
Falling out of what I know is true
Falling come shelter me as I lie here bleeding
Falling away from what I thought was you
Falling come shelter me as I lie here bleeding
So speak & I listen
I'll take the time to hear you out
So scream & I sure listen
I just need a little time
Gathering the pieces of a stronger me
Helpless weak & battered
My wounds are bleeding
Falling out of what I know is true...
Gathering the pieces...
Falling out of what I know is true...
As I Lie Here Bleeding
