Can you see like a child? Can you see what I want? I wanna run through your wicked garden That's the place to find ya 'Cause I'm alive So alive now I know the darkness blinds you Can you see without eyes? Can you speak without lies? I wanna drink from your naked fountain I can drown your sorrows I'm gonna burn, burn you to life now Out of the chains that bind you Can you see just like a child? Can you see just what I want? Can I bring you back to life? Are you still alive? Burn, burn, burn Burn your wicked garden down Burn, burn, burn Burn your wicked garden to the ground Can you feel pain inside? Can you love? Can you cry? I wanna run through your wicked garden That's the place to find ya 'Cause I'm alive so Alive now I know the darkness blinds you Can you see just like a child? Can you see just what I want? Can I bring you back to life? Are you still alive? Burn, burn, burn Burn your wicked garden down Burn, burn, burn Burn your wicked garden to the ground
