what have they done to you lyrics

There must be something out there,
There must be something real
Well this mystery's a nightmare
And I don't know what to feel
Well I heard you had a hell of a time there
I guess it chilled you down to the bone
If there's one thing I can tell you
It'll never leave you less than alone

In spite of everything you told me
In spite of everything I've heard
There's nothing here that I call holy
Not a solitary word
Could you tell me what it's like on the outside
Were you really lost and out of control
Were you reaching for your freedom
When the gatekeeper called for the toll

Oh-oh, what have they done to you
Where, where have you gone
Oh-oh, I wanna run to you
In spite of what you're saying
I still can't let you go

Well they say you witnessed some kind of lefe there
Was it something real or nothing at all
Or is your imagination all that's there to catch you
If you start to fall

Oh-oh, what have they done to you
Where, where have you gone
Oh-oh I wanna run to you
In spite of what you're saying
I still can't let you go

Oh-oh, what have they done to you
Where, where have you gone
Oh-oh I wanna run to you
In spite of what you're saying
I still can't let you go

What have they done to you
