We're setting fires in the darkness of night Ignite the torches and start the flame We are the sickness we are the plague The sound of silence is killing me I taste your needles and my sins The nightmares pierce my skin so deep I swallow hope so I can breathe Welcome to the broken-hearted screaming alone Welcome to the life departed searching for home I burn the picture in my head I watch the doctors wipe your lips The smell of morphine takes my breath You close your eyes and pray for death You live this nightmare I am drowning in the flood Surrounded by sight of you I'm sinking in the storm Welcome to the broken-hearted screaming alone Welcome to the life departed Searching for home Bury me tear out my soul Tell me I'm nothing but worthless and bleeding alone Welcome to the broken-hearted screaming alone Welcome to the life departed searching for home
