lyrics

Stitching up a wound. Up and down and over. Grit your teeth and pull it tight. How can you forgive when you can't forget? And in your skin you don't feel right.
But this time we've got a fiction we can hide behind. Just know if these words ring true they just flow through me.
what if we woke?
Out there on your own with anesthetic fading. What we need is swift triage. And I'll swear over and over. fool me once and I'll wear that shame until it's just too much to bare.
This time we've got a fiction we can hide behind. Just know if these words ring true they just flow through me. This time we've got a fiction we can hide behind. Just know if these words ring true they just flow through.
What if we woke?
What if we woke up from a dream. What if the weight pressures your fibers. What would you say, what would you do when that plan falls through? Through the cracks. All this time. All this time. Through the cracks like grains of sand.
This time we've got a fiction we can hide behind. Just know if these words ring true they just flow through me. This time we've got a fiction we can hide behind. Just know if these words ring true they just flow through me.
