[al:The Heart of Everything]
[00:26.31]Nothing’s ever changed, you still turn away
[00:30.64]You’ve washed your hands, you’ve made that all too clear
[00:36.73]You just keep on living this lie
[00:43.87]You refuse to see, you’re denying me
[00:48.16]The cross I bear but you don’t seem to care
[00:54.38]Even Judas knew he had lied
[01:00.87]I keep wondering why
[01:03.10]I’m still calling your name through my tears
[01:10.46]Why have you waited to embrace me my dear?
[01:19.22]Cold is your silence, denying what is real
[01:27.47]I’m still wondering why
[01:29.48]I’m still calling your name my dear
[01:49.86]I’m sorry if you can’t stand the naked truth
[01:54.12]All you see is how you want it to be
[02:00.44]So you keep on living your life
[02:07.63]Release me from this cross after all these years
[02:12.10]Oh call my name and help me with this weight
[02:18.70]Even though it comes far too late
[02:24.75]I keep wondering why
[02:26.75]I’m still calling your name through my tears
[02:34.80]Why have you waited to embrace me my dear
[02:42.87]Cold is your silence, denying what is real
[02:51.40]I’m still wondering why I’m still calling your name
[02:55.39]And I wonder, oh I wonder ...
[02:59.91]In my heart I still hope you will open the door
[03:04.50]You can purify it all, answer my call
[03:42.42]Why? Why?
[03:44.63]Why have you waited to embrace me my dear?
[03:53.35]Cold is your silence, denying what is real
[04:01.59]I’m still wondering why I’m still calling your name
[04:05.74]And I wonder, oh I wonder ...
[04:10.34]In my heart I still hope you will open the door
[04:14.56]You can purify it all, answer my call
