I was in the shadow using up my time
Tangled up in thought of what to do with mine
Until the midnight hour when a lowly demoiselle
Came into my tower, upon the bed she fell
As a flower in the cold, a marigold as lovely as could be
Long it has been now
But I won't soon forget the vow she made to me
When she said
Well, I don't know anything of where you've been
But I'll give you all to help me feel again
Feel again
Everything I own to make me feel again
Even then
I would get you more to make me feel
Like a bird unfettered of her cage
When the siren came
She called my name into the silent summer's eve
And in the moment's end
I caught her when she gave a broken smile to me
And she said
Well, I pray to find you every now and then
When the numb takes hold and I can't feel again
Feel again
Everything I own to make me feel again
Even then
I would get you more to make me feel
Real again
Every drop inside to make it real again
Even then
I would drain the world to make it real
Feel again
Everything I own to make me feel again
Even then
I would get you more to make me feel
