He walks up the steps
Praying to a god
he don't believe in...

He looks up to the sky
But doesn't recognize
That he's bleeding (on the inside)...

There's terror in his eyes
And he is at the edge,
But doesn't see it (doesn't see it)...

He wants to get away
He wants a better place
That he can stay in (a place called home)...

But home is not as real
As he wants it to be
He will not make it (in time)

Home is but a word
Describing where you stay
Home is not a haven lest you make it (one)

He'll never feel great
He'll never be loved
He'll never get away (never ever)...

He'll want to to feel great
He'll want to feel loved
But it won't happen (never ever)...

Why? you may ask
The answer's in the past
Just look at what he's done
The answers lie right there
Right in front your eyes
But you can't see it (you can't see it)

They say not to dwell
Dwell on the past
But he won't make it (if you don't)...

So look into his eyes
Feel him as he dies
Oh my God, his life is drifting (drifting away)...

Forever in my heart
The note on his desk reads,
But no one could believe (that he is gone now)...

The noose around his neck
Oh it tells a different story
From what is true, man (from what is true)...

You've looked into the past?
Then you must know by now
That he lost his soul (along time ago)
When he lost you (his only love)

Very good, Adam. I think those would be great lyrics.
