Lyrics

Game Size

I am bound by my pain 
Tears fall down like the rain 
Can't you see it's a part of me?
My whole life is incomplete

All alone

I am bound by my pain 
Tears fall down like the rain 
Can't you see it's a part of me?
My whole life is incomplete

Am I wasting all my time 
Believing someone is waiting for me 
Is it a dream or lie? 
Sometimes life just passes by 
Oh why?

Long Version


I am bound by my pain 
Tears fall down like the rain 
Can't you see it's a part of me? 
My whole life is incomplete

All alone...
With no hope...
I cry out...
Make it all disappear

I am bound by my pain 
Tears fall down like the rain 
Can't you see it's a part of me? 
My whole life is incomplete

All alone in the night
With no hope left in sight.
I cry out, can you hear?
Make it all disappear

Am I wasting all my time 
Believing someone is waiting for me 
Is it a dream or lie? 
Sometimes life just passes by
Oh why?
