Stripped Away Lyrics

Stripped Away lyrics

Fuel - Stripped Away 

I must have left my soul cracked open
like a
door. . . 
in the night. . .

Seizing the opportunity 
while i lay
there sleeping 
all the beggars and thieves walked in 
and they stole

all i stored inside 

I woke to find 
a shell of a man 
and all
i had once believed . . .

Stripped away . . .
Stripped away


Well i sat at Satan's table 
and I drank the wine 
in a feast of
revelry 
Till my eyes were red and swollen 
and my soul was so held with
stains 
that just won't come clean 

and i tell myself 
that i am
in youth  
What all i could achieve

Stripped away . . .
Stripped
away 

Well i stared at my own reflection 
But i know that those eyes
can't be me 
My sprit floats in desperation
on dreams like I've never
seen 

So i reach  for you 
and draw you near 
and pray that you
won't be. . .

Stripped away 
Stripped away
