Perfect morning greets my eyes
Can't tell / don't care you're in disguise

We build our           walls so high
We can't see          if the sun does shine
We build our           walls of stone
We can't tell            if the wind blows

But you are              tunneling chip away              structural integrity
Knowing that           you care is what I fear             will tear me up and down
In your eyes             there's a light it tempts me         to compromise my defense
My fortress               of self pres- ervation                 is crumbling around me

Blessing or curse I can't decide
Who you are lying here beside

We build our           walls so high
That we can't          ever hope to climb
We build our           walls of stones
Imprisoned             desperate, alone

But you are              tunneling chip away              structural integrity
Knowing that           you care is what I fear             will tear me up and down
In your eyes             there's a light it tempts me         to compromise my defense
My fortress               of self pres- ervation                 is crumbling around me

Between my heart and my head and my hand
I have no idea what to do with you
In darkness I'm waiting, my heart dissipating
And you're all I'd ever want

Architect divine, yet faceless
Designing this perfect hell
…this perfect hell

But you are              tunneling chip away              structural integrity
Knowing that           you care is what I fear             will tear me up and down
In your eyes             there's a light it tempts me         to compromise my defense
My fortress               of self pres- ervation                 is crumbling around me

Between my heart and my head and my hand
I have no idea what to do with you
In darkness I'm waiting, my heart dissipating
And you're all I'd ever want
(Sacrificing all I'd ever want)

Self-sacrifice               Pain
Preservation                Fear
Deprivation                  Love (love)
Deconstruction           No (no) 

Between my heart and my head and my hand
I have no idea what to do with you
In darkness I'm waiting, my heart dissipating
And you're all I'd ever want
(Sacrificing all I'd ever want)
