Lyrics

My Love, I write to you I’ve gone
Right off the rails of the train I’m on
I’d like to come back home but I don’t know the way

I’ve traveled down this road before
I’ve seen both ends, I've gone back and forth
But I know I’ll come back to you love, another day

Am I, am I mindless
Am I trudging through the wasteland of my head
Am I sole confessor
And is that why it seems to want me dead

Can I get a witness
That it’s killing us much faster than it seems
Can I get an answer
Will we never understand just what it means

I am bound again
Ironbound again

My Love, the worm’s inside my brain
I’d swear to you I’d had it tamed
But it’s eaten through the palisade erected in your name

You must have come this way before
But not like this, not like this, oh lord
Forgiveness will not cause me to forget my shame

Am I, am I broken
Am I naught but a redundant waste of space
If you have a moment
Can you help me fit the pieces in their place

My humanity’s my disease
A slave to my senses, I live on my knees
I can’t control myself
But there’s no controlling anyone else

Can I put my mind at ease?
That’s all that I beg of you, take this from me
I can’t control myself

I am bound again
Ironbound again

I write to you I’m back again
But the bleeding hunger never ends
