  • Easy on the eyes, uneasy on the heart
    Sew my wrists shut, sew my wrists shut with hope
    Straight into the light shining bright
    I dare you to dream this
    And I dare you to dream this gone
    What I want to know is which makes you smile less

    [Chorus]
    Here's to the pain the light of the oncoming train
    Come on ode to solitude in chains
    Here's to the pain as always heaven in flames now bleeding
    Ode to solitude in chains

    Map the scars of a heart bruised and torn
    Loosen the noose love loosen the noose with love
    What I want to know is why you keep me hanging

    [Chorus]

    If I should fail to stay
    Remember not to forget this feeling you have
    I've failed please pretend it never happened baby

    [Chorus: x2]

    Ode to solitude
    Ode to solitude
