Salvation

[Verse 1]
I strike the match and I kiss the flame
Blow my world away again
Yes, my friend, I built this cage
With a needle blood, a match and flame

[Verse 2]
As I wander blind, I will feel no pain
Close my mind, fill these veins
Find my way through my dead dreams
Light my eyes, I can’t see
Sweet salvation is mine

[Verse 3]
And night will fall, in the sheets of rain
Fill my eyes, fill this cage
Water risin’, and I can see
Waves of black wash over me

[Bridge]
This is not me
This is not me
Where is the man I used to be

[Bridge 2]
I turn and scream
I once had dreams
How could I ever be this weak

I would be whole
If I took control
And turned this dirt back into gold

[Outro]
Someday I’ll turn
I’ll never learn
I strike the match and feel it

Burn, burn, burn, and I am free…
