Don't Lose Yourself

I walked alone in the burning sand
To parts unknown in search of a friend
Teardrops in my hand
They wouldn't understand

But somewhere along the raging river
I lost myself and got swept away
Your words echo in my head
This is what they said

Don't lose yourself in this hell
Who's the ghost in the mirror?
Can you tell?
Mother, the days they pass
And the nights are long
And the heart grows more alone
Don't lose yourself in this hell

The birds are gone, they have flown away
And what's it worth if you have nobody/
Cradling your hand
Now you understand

Don't lose yourself in this hell
Who's the ghost in the mirror?
Can you tell?
Mother, days they pass
And the nights are long
And the heart grows more alone
Don't lose yourself in this hell

Someone's on the radio talking to me, through me
Someone's on the radio, but you're all gone now
We caught the legs of a butterfly
We caught the legs of a butterfly
And the walls and the walls came down

(Someone's on the radio) we caught the legs of a butterfly
And the walls and the walls came down
(Someone's on the radio) and the walls and the walls came down (leg of a butterfly)
And the walls came down, walls came down

(On the radio, on the radio, on the radio)
