Buried deep under blood and skin
  A whisper a tempest is raging from within
  I hold my breath bitter proud
  Afraid to scream fire in the middle of a crowd
  I ponder incision envision the brain
  I beckon the surgeon to a slice against the grain
  now that I've waisted you
  the white room is pure the doctors are brave
  If there's a cure I want to be saved
  Sanctuary
  
  Under the knife sharp and shiny key
  Repair redeem resurrection
  Under the knife they'll cut you out of me
  Maybe love's imitation is life under the knife
  
  I have come to determine a reasonable doubt
  Where heaven and hell draw their boundary lines about
  Now that I've waisted you now that I've tasted you
  The white room had frost on the cold window pane
  Your love had been lost my love was in vain
  Sanctuary
  
  Cynical splices stitch and install
  Solder the filaments I feel nothing at all
  Second wind secrets let them rise let them fall
  I'll walk through your firestorm but never never crawl
  The gambler lives the blood stain dries
  It's time to forgive I open my eyes
  Sanctuary
