Home Is For The Heartless

If home is where the heart is
Why do I feel so fucking heartless?
The crumbling skyline cuts a vicious horizon
Sinking its teeth into the cold september sky
Decaying towers of steel reach with crooked spires for the heavens
Like bones of the hollow chest of this town
Torn wide for the scavengers

Mother mercy, take my hand
Follow me through this forsaken land
Father time, return what's mine
The innocence you stole from these eyes

Because I feel numb
For the vision burning before me is one of former glory
An icon cast in the light of free times
Now writhes in a bed of lies
Hope doesn't live here
Love doesn't live here anymore

Mother mercy, take my hand
Follow me through this forsaken land
Father time, return what's mine
The innocence you stole from these eyes
Because I just feel numb
