Song language: English
The Cave |
| It’s empty in the valley of your heart |
| The sun, it rises slowly as you walk |
| Away from all the fears |
| And all the faults you left behind |
| The harvest left no food for you to eat |
| You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see |
| But I have seen the same |
| I know the shame in your defeat |
| But I will hold on hope |
| And I won’t let you choke |
| On the noose around your neck |
| And I’ll find strength in pain |
| And I will change my ways |
| Know my name as it’s called again |
| 'Cause I have other things to fill my time |
| You take what is yours and I’ll take mine |
| Now let me at the truth |
| Which will refresh my broken mind |
| So tie me to a post and block my ears |
| I can see widows and orphans through my tears |
| I know my call despite my faults |
| And despite my growing fears |
| But I will hold on hope |
| And I won’t let you choke |
| On the noose around your neck |
| And I’ll find strength in pain |
| And I will change my ways |
| I know my name as it’s called again |
| So come out of your cave walking on your hands |
| And see the world hanging upside down |
| You can understand dependence |
| When you know the maker’s hand |
| So make your siren’s call |
| And sing all you want |
| I will not hear what you have to say |
| 'Cause I need freedom now |
| And I need to know how |
| To live my life as it’s meant to be |
| I will hold on hope |
| And I won’t let you choke |
| On the noose around your neck |
| And I’ll find strength in pain |
| And I will change my ways |
| I know my name as it’s called again |
