Taken for granted
Taken to task
I lost my bearings
I dropped my mask
Over the limit
Under the curse
Got sick on the main course, but here's the dessert

You can almost hear a pin drop where it hurts the most
You can feel the hammer fall after Dad finishes His last work

And I know I'm reeling
Life goes so fast
I know I'm bleeding, but it's only a scratch

And all of your maps are torn and rent
The surveyor's findings are of dubious content
With all that you swallowed, you're starving like before
The entrance to your dream home looks like a prison door

You can almost hear a pin drop where it hurts the most
You can feel the hammer fall after Dad's ugly work

They say that you're dreaming
The third time down fast
I know I'm bleeding
Yes, but it's only a scratch

So come all ye weary
Ones that languish
Come ye disconsolate
Sore distressed
I heard my Dad's voice near the river of pain
Near the river of love
They were one and the same

You can almost hear a pin drop where it hurts the most
You can hear the hammer fall after Dad finishes His best work
