they’ve put me in
this house of pain
to never feel
the sun again
cold dark towers
scrape the sky
the rain falls down
as angels cry

i’m living in
this house of pain

what are these tears
upon my face
regret has taken
angers place
comes the dawn
my soul will die
cause enough
for me to cry

i’m crying in
this house of pain

will they stop?
baby i don’t know
will they stop?
baby i don’t know
they are tears
of inner sadness
of confusion
and of madness
will they stop?
baby i don’t know

the warden says
i’m gonna die
the warden says
i’m gonna die
well maybe then
i will be free
of all these things
that are haunting me
the warden says
i’m gonna die

and I will leave
this house of pain
