You have just everything
But nothing at all
Now the moon is dark
Feels like pain again
You could feel my breath
You opened my eyes
For I could not see
When I met you

When I met you (you're feeling depressed)
I could not speak (you're drowning in pain)
You opened my mouth (you're walking in midst)
You opened my heart (you're leaving again)
My spirit shows (she tore you down)
The marks and stains (happens all the same)
Could not exist (you were afraid)
When I met you
Now it's all the same
It's all the same
The sun is gone
It's all the same
But when I met you
When I met you
When I met you
When I met you

When I met you
You were afraid (when I met you)
She stole your heart (when I met you)
You don't understand (when I met you)
Should be ashamed (when I met you)
You should have walked (I was the walking dead)
She tore you down (I was kicked in the head)
She tore you down

You actually become the center of my world
The seams of my life
The streams of daydream
Like the wounds of a friend
Another the kiss of a foe
The pack of a blackened eye
A life or the crown

When I met you
I could not speak
How I met you
Then I met you
My spirit grows (you're feeling again)
My kind of truth (you're drowning in pain)
Could not exist (you are afraid)
When I met you
How It's all the same
It's all the same
The sun is gone
It's all the same
But when I met you
When I met you
When I met you
When I met you

When I met you (you were afraid)
When I met you (she stole your heart)
I was the walking dead (she tore you down)
I was kicked in the head (she tore you down)
It was such a time (when I met you)
It was such a time (when I met you)
I was crushed inside (when I met you)
I was torn inside
When I met you
When I met you
I was too insane
Could not trust a thing
I was off my head
I was filled with truth
It was not God's truth
Before I met you
