  My eyes, they never sleep
  My eyes, they torture me
  And my heart, it falls so fast
  But it looks back
  It looks back
  My knees are getting weaker
  Each passing day, each passing day
  With each word of disapproval, my backbone falters

  I need redemption soon

  ...when I say
  I'm trying to make it just like you
  Could you show some grace?
  And fall back into my spell?
  Into my hell
  Into my hell?

  And you don't even know where I come from anymore
  It used to be so easy
  Your provision doesn't even fall on my land anymore
  Conversation weakens in your eyes
