Lyrics for Painful Detour

Time elapsing, storm running out Sorrowless beauty, ready to doubt Stronger than ever, weak at the bone Hide from the open, turn into stone Underneath a freezing winter all alone Superficial friendly gesture dead and gone Spend my days searching places to belong Stranded in a painful detour What went wrong? Massive agenda, shivering ground Building a castle, foundation unsound Never suspected this beauty to be Carving deeply into my stone Gathering round me, yet feelings dilate A new dimension of feeling alone Simple surroundings, complexity near Not what it seems like, covered in fear Underneath a freezing winter all alone Superficial friendly gesture dead and gone Spend my days searching places to belong Stranded in a painful detour What went wrong?
