|
I'm the crutch, I'm the words on the back of your tongue |
|
I'm the intermittent headaches |
|
I'm the dirt running deep beneath your fingernails that can't be scrubbed |
|
I'm the part you've kept hidden, I'm the stain on your name |
|
I'm the opposite of conscience |
|
I'm the needle in your side, I'm regret, I'm the dread, I'm the shame |
|
I got tricked, made out to follow |
|
Chest is empty, cold and hollow |
|
All you look the same |
|
Oh, collecting rain beneath your shoulders |
|
Come be my blood, be my brother |
|
Everyone knows you're just like me |
|
You're deaf, that's all |
|
Caught you up in spotlight |
|
Caught you lost and tongue tied |
|
Now we know what you look like |
|
Now we know your hands are crooked |
|
Try to walk so upright |
|
Oh, you've come to pick a fight? |
|
Now we know what you look like |
|
We know your facade is cracking |
|
Burning eyes and mouths of splinters |
|
Cast their stones and drown the sinners |
|
All you look the same |
|
We could all make such good friends |
|
Yeah, we're all just such elegant disasters |
|
And though your heart never beat like mine |
|
I can come and fill the gaps if you want me to |
|
And we may never be as bright as them |
|
But we'll never have to sink the way they do |
|
We're no names |
|
Somewhere out there things are in line |
|
Somewhere out there we're all just fine |
