Cornerstone

Scream

Cornerstone


I am cast of flesh and blood, you are carved from misery and stone
Lost beneath the neon of the city, no sanctuary, no home
But fate hold out his withered hand to take me on

In time you taste a cruel embrace, a faceless lover's ice-cold kiss, a comfort zone
Open up and say you're hurting, a little scared and so uncertain, all alone
But fate holds out his withered hand to lead me home

Scream for the lonely child of emptiness
Scream, scream for the lonely child of pain
We'll scream

Cry yourself to endless sleep, cast out all the secrets that you keep
Take my hand, I'll be your guide, we'll walk together till the kiss of morning light
So safe, in arms of this sweet dreamer, come to me

Just scream for the lonely child of emptiness
Scream, scream for the lonely child of pain
We'll scream
Just scream
And cry our tears

But fate holds out his withered hand to lead me home
Just scream before your heart turns to stone

Scream for the lonely child of emptiness
Scream, scream for the lonely child of pain
We'll scream for the lonely child of emptiness
Scream, scream for the lonely child of pain
The sadness fills the air
