I wrapped my heart in a blanket
I took it down to the stream
I held it under the water
That's when I started to dream
I let no sign of a struggle out
The clouds were waiting for me
Led like a lamb to the slaughterhouse
Now I'm free
I looked for love in the fire
But I lost my faith in the flame
So I turned the thermostat higher
Til my face was burning with shame
But I let no sign of a struggle out
The clouds were waiting within
Led like a lamb to the slaughterhouse
Filled with sin
I thought I knew you
I drove my car off the cliff side
I lost my way in mid air
I turned right into your driveway
But there was nobody there
I let no sign of a struggle out
The clouds were waiting above
Led like a lamb to the slaughterhouse
With no love
I thought I knew you
