She came calling,
one early morning,
she showed her crown of thorns.

She whispered softly,
to tell a story,
about how she had been wronged.

As she lay lifeless,
he stole her innocence,
and this is how she carried on.


Well I guess she closed her eyes,
and just imagined everything's alright.
But she could not hide her tears,
'cause they were sent to wash away those years.
They were sent to wash away those years.


My anger's violent,
but still I'm silent,
when tragedy strikes at home.

I know this decadence Is shared by millions,
remember you're not alone,
Remember you're not alone.


Well if you just closed your eyes,
and just imagine everything's alright.
But do not hide your tears,
'cause they were sent to wash away those years.
They were sent to wash away those years.


For we have crossed many oceans,
and we labor in between.
In life there are many quotients,
and I hope I find the mean.
-Creed


This is a great song with a GREAT guitar riff during the bridge (@ 3:57). Go get it if you don't have it.
