Verse 1
They've been carving
your name out in stone
Building stairways
to lead you home
Though there's room up
above I can tell you my love
That I won't let you go
Inerlude: Bbm-F#-C#-F- x3, Eb/G--F#--
Verse 2
There's a place in my heart
where my courage is kept
And I'm keeping it there
till my mind is at rest
It's the one bit of power
that I still have left in me?
Chorus 1
Now this room is
like a cage
I've been stuck
in here for days
Searching deep
inside my mind
Just to find a
better place
And I'm waiting for
you To pick up the
pieces and move along
Verse 3
There's a place on a street
in a town that I know
Where the earth doesn't move
and the grass doesn't grow
There's a chill in the air
that goes straight to your bones
I've got my hands in the ground
and I'm digging you up
(Repeat Chorus 1)

Bridge
Silence
When all colour starts to fade
And the cage begins to break
I give my body to the skies
Now I'm standing at the gates
And I'm waiting for you
To pick up the pieces and move along
Chorus 2
Now this room is
like a cage
I've been stuck
in here for days
Searching deep
inside my mind
Just to find a
better place
And I'm waiting for
you To pick up the
pieces and move along
