[Intro: Andrea Ferro]
Run...
Rise...
Burn me, reducing the stigma
Born to live in this house of shame
[Verse: Andrea]
While I dig the grave
On my path to find faith
You weren't there while I was dying
You're the reason I'm feeling so deranged
I will stay here and haunt you forever
[Chorus: Cristina Scabbia and Andrea]
Why, always staring into the light?
If I don't hide inside the darkness
You'll be compromised, but
Sometimes, you will fly with me again
Without falling...
Without falling...
[Post-Chorus: Andrea]
Rise!
Read my words
Run!
Mark my words
[Verse: Andrea]
I'm bedridden here
Locked outside of my faith
Incurable, captured by time
You're the reason I'm feeling so deranged
I will stay here and haunt you forever
[Chorus: Cristina and Andrea]
Why, always staring into the light?
If I don't hide inside the darkness
You'll be compromised, but
Sometimes, you will fly with me again
Without falling...
Without falling...
[Bridge 1: Andrea]
I told you to leave me alone
I told you to leave me alone
I told you to leave me alone
I told you to leave me alone...
Take my soul
[Bridge 2: Cristina]
Sometimes, you will find me there again
Without mourning...
Without mourning...
Sometimes, you will fly with me again
Without falling...
Without falling...
[Post-Chorus/Outro: Andrea]
Rise!
Read my words...
Run!
Mark my words...

In a track-by-track interview with Metal Hammer:
This was inspired by the story of a real sanatorium in the States. It was said to be haunted, so the song is told from the perspective of the spirit that roams the grounds."
