lyrics

You are my home
You are my bed
You are the numbers in my head
I built a cage around my heart
Keeps us apart
Keeps us apart
(in debt)
Oh keep your distance from me please
(deeply in debt)
You make me feel so ill at ease
(in debt)
You give me hope but it's not much
(deeply in debt)
It's not enough
It's not enough

I am a patient man but even I admit that this situation's getting desperate
All the time we wasted - I can see the end
And I wanna go back and begin again

You are my bones
You are my bread
You are the numbers in my head
I built a cage around my heart
Keeps us apart
Keeps us apart
(in debt)
I think I died and went to hell
(deeply in debt)
I am not feeling very well
(in debt)
You give me hope, but it's not love
(deeply in debt)
It's not enough
It's not enough

I am a patient man but even I admit that this situation's getting desperate
All the time we wasted - I can see the end
And I wanna go back and begin again
But I'd probably make the same mistakes again and again
If this is what it takes I don't have the necessary strength
To change myself for the best
And all that still remains is your lies

I need some more lies
Scales for my old eyes
I need some more lies

I am a patient man but even I admit that this situation's getting desperate
All the time we wasted - I can see the end
And I wanna go back and begin again
