Lyrics

Breaking down the barriers to reach inside the void

Using every trick I have the patience to employ

Staring into emptiness, I look for something right

But shadows from the darkness cast unfamiliar light



Crashing into silence, I strain to hear a sound

Nothing is the same, confusion all around

Searching for a sign, I may be getting through

But every step I take brings me less of what I knew



I’m knocking – But no one’s home – I’m feeling – So alone

I’m looking – It’s hard to find – Anything that might be left behind

I’m knocking – But no one’s home – I’m missing – The world I’ve known

I’m wishing – But I’m resigned – To never turning back the hands of time



Asking no more questions, telling no more lies

Hiding my emotions so no one sees me cry

Things that are and things that were, they don’t look the same

Everything is different now and only here in name



All that I can see is an unfamiliar soul

I wish I had a hint of something new or something old

Maybe no one’s there to answer the door

Should I even feel the need to be knocking any more



But I’m knocking – And no one’s home – I’m feeling – So alone

I’m looking – It’s hard to find – Anything that might be left behind

I’m knocking – But no one’s home – I’m missing – The world I’ve known

I’m wishing – But I’m resigned – To never turning back the hands of time
