Falling down, rain flows into my heart

In the pain I'm waiting for you

Can't go back

No place to go back to

Life is lost, Flowers fall

Verse 1 
(4:10—4:51)
               Em             G  
I'm making the wall inside my heart
              D               Em
I don't wanna let my emotions get out
          Em                C
It scares me to look at the world
      D      D#m          Em           Em  D             
Don't want to find myself lost in your eyes

 I tried to drown my past in grey
C          A             D    B 
 I never wanna feel more pain
C           D               G         B    
 Ran away from you without saying any words
C             D             Em 
 What I don't wanna lose is love

(Verse 2) (5:16—5:56)
           C
Through my eyes
     G            Am
Time goes by like tears
   Em           F                G
My emotion's losing the color of life
        C
Kill my heart
  G            Am   
Release all my pain
    Em           F
I'm shouting out louder
               G    E     
Insanity takes hold over me

Am
  Turning away from the wall
F
  Nothing I can see
G
The scream deep inside
            C                   Em 
reflecting another person in my heart
          Am
He calls me from within
               F   
"All existence you see before you

must be wiped out :
G       E         Am 
  Dream, Reality, Memories,
and Yourself"

I begin to lose control of myself
              D                  G   B
My lust is so blind, destroys my mind
           Em                 C    
Nobody can stop my turning to madness
   D              D#m            Em          Em  D
No matter how you try to hold me in your heart
C           D                 B    B
 Why do you wanna raise these walls?
C                 A       D      B       
 I don't know the meaning of hatred
C              D                  G        B
 My brain gets blown away hearing words of lies
C       D                 Em 
 I only want to hold your love
