Pots and Pans

The last I heard, you’d said you were safe

But now my heart is filled with hate

What I was brought up to believe

Was stolen from me

By some men all diseased

And now they left me with pots and pans

All that’s left is pots and pans

All the dreams we were to have

Got washed away by anothers’ hands

In a visit to my door

What of the dreams that we hoped for

And now all I have are pots and pans

Read this world

Read this aloud

Read it all day…all night

See my tears

See my lines

see why I want to die

And all because they lied

They lied

They lied

Twenty years they’ll build a wall

On your name will all be scrawled

How you were brave

How you were strong

But nothing will be written of

How they were all wrong

And all I’ll have is my pots and pans

All that’s left is pots and pans

All the dreams we were to have

Got washed away by anothers’ hands

In a visit to my door

What of the dreams that we hoped for

And now all I have are pots and pans

Read this world

Read this aloud

Read it all day…all night

See my tears

See my lines

see why I want to die

And all because they lied

They lied

They lied

Oh, and I’ll have some pictures

So to show all my friends

But no kids, no holidays, no drinks

Just what you looked like

As you boarded the plane

And dead plans

All I’ll have are my pots and pans

Sanctuary

When it’s dark out, when it’s cold out
That’s when it begins to close in on me
I have to have you, here to cling to
And to hold me down so I don’t freak
What I say here, when I stay here
Is that I need my sanctuary
Sanctuary.  Sanctuary.

First they defeat you, then they eat you
And there’s nothing left, no skin it’s just bones
Oh they mock me, then they shock me
But they see that I am always exposed
I need some cover from a lover
Which is you and all your sanctuary
Sanctuary.  Sanctuary.

I want to come out, look at the sun

Want to walk a bit, try to have fun

But dilemmas I cannot escape

So it’s back inside my sanctuary, sanctuary

Sanctuary, sanctuary

I let my walls down, then I fall down
It seems to happen to me time after time
Then they stand there, and they laugh there
I feel another bout on the rise
First the fever, then the shakes
Then a quake, a break from my sanctuary
Sanctuary. Sanctuary.

I want to come out, look at the sun

Want to walk a bit, try to have fun

But dilemmas I cannot escape

So it’s back inside my sanctuary, sanctuary

Sanctuary, sanctuary

I wanna come out (sanctuary!)
I wanna walk around (sanctuary!)
I wanna come out (sanctuary!)
I wanna go outside (sanctuary!)
Sanctuary
Sanctuary
Sanctuary
