Lyrics

Serve your twisted enemy
so you might earn forgiveness
You know your whole world is waiting
so why can't you speak?

I feel it coming over me
I'm still a slave to these dreams
Is this the end of everything
or just a new way to bleed?

So go and tell all your friends that I'm a failure underneath
If it makes you feel like a bigger man
But it's my, my heart, my life that you're calling a lie
I've played this game before
and I can't take anymore

I feel it coming over me
I'm still a slave to these dreams
Is this the end of everything?
or just a new way to bleed?

I drifted far beyond the earth
freedom, freedom can't you feel the ground caving in?
freedom, give us a reason to believe again

I feel it coming over me
I'm still a slave to these dreams
Is this the end of everything?
or just a new way to bleed?

Notes

  1. This version has a piano in the middle eight instead of a harp, as heard in the "New Way to Bleed" snippet Terry uploaded on Twitter.
