You are the only pain I know

You turned these tired eyes to stone

you carved your name into my bones

before I finally let you go No one makes me

bleed like you do but I’m through bleeding

for you so close its eyes and dress

its wounds lay it to rest and seal

its tomb no doubt in my heart anymore

I’ve found a cause I can fight for days

spent longing no more I’ve got friends

I would die for and I will wander no more

I’ve found a home I can stay for

and I don’t need you anymore

I’ve found a love I can live for

All of the things that you’ve done

will keep your eyes on the floor

you choose to hide in the dark

because you’re a marked man

A broken promise like chains

will keep you bound to the past

you’ll never find your way home

as long as you’re a marked man

everything I’ve ever learned

about loving and living

and dying and caring and trying

it was all backwards it’s terrifying

I say I’m a good man I’m ****ing lying

and all the things I told myself

to make this bitter world make

sense they were just a defense

a fragile fortress for my selfishness.

I’m wide awake and I can see her

praying for me

to come home my eyes are shut

but I still feel her praying for me

to come home find your way home
