lirik lagu carly z - the void

what happens to so many jailers
when the prisoners all are set free
what happens to shepherds for saviors
when gone are the penitent sheep

what happens to time~honored masters
when they hear the chains rattle and fall
the shattered glasses of bemis
with nothing but time after all

imagine these men for a moment
looking and finding no help
and for the first time in their lives
facing the void of themselves

and what of myself in my bedroom
when all men have come and gone
with no one to tell me who i am
i realize i never have known

when i tire of calling myself victim
a coat i have worn like a skin
still none of the things that i yield to
can heal the unyielding within

there are so many cures for this ailing
and hundreds of ways to stay dumb
thousands of empty distractions
and millions of ways to be numb

the light in a dark place is painful
it shows what we can’t bear to see
and most of us patch up the rupture
and take darkness, its sharp~edged relief

the scariest thing about freedom
you can no longer cry to be free
the source of your strength has departed
and taken your identity

so tell me what have we to bind us
when freedom grants each one his own
without duty or demon to blind us
who the h~ll are we alone
