The tears had dried, the changes made
And peace I found in loneliness
As gentle, caring emptiness
Old rituals gone, the past denied
To grave be laid the tears I cried
And find the strength to feel and see
The fate that lies ahead of me
The time has come to turn the tide
To break the bonds that years have tied
A time of change - a time of gain
To clean the soul with healing rain
Betrayal, lie, dishonesty
Of those who had surrounded me
Filled the emptiness inside
And took my honour and my pride
And as my tongue spoke foreign words
And my hands did work, not mine
I stepped away from my own self
A puppet made by their design
The time has come to turn the tide
To break the bonds that years have tied
A time of change - a time of gain
To clean the soul with healing rain
I felt I had to clean their traces
Crush their words, erase their faces
Kill their presence deep in me
To open up my eyes to see
The time has come to turn the tide
To break the bonds that years have tied
A time of change - a time of gain
To clean the soul with healing rain
When all my pain to rest was laid The tears had dried, the changes made And peace I found in loneliness As gentle, caring emptiness Old rituals gone, the past denied To grave be laid the tears I cried And find the strength to feel and see The fate that lies ahead of me The time has come to turn the tide To break the bonds that years have tied A time of change - a time of gain To clean the soul with healing rain Betrayal, lie, dishonesty Of those who had surrounded me Filled the emptiness inside And took my honour and my pride And as my tongue spoke foreign words And my hands did work, not mine I stepped away from my own self A puppet made by their design The time has come to turn the tide To break the bonds that years have tied A time of change - a time of gain To clean the soul with healing rain I felt I had to clean their traces Crush their words, erase their faces Kill their presence deep in me To open up my eyes to see The time has come to turn the tide To break the bonds that years have tied A time of change - a time of gain To clean the soul with healing rain Explain Request ×
