Falter, from riddled dreams that broke your tongue
Exposure, daisy chained to the ones you love
And when what's empty starts to fill
A shrill of pain begins to build below
Tell me just how you feel
When truth becomes the thing you're running from
I figured I'd be there
As the color returned to your face
Constantly pushing away
Denial became your faith
Cries from your mother
That ripped through your father
Who lied to his children
To keep them apart
Fire, light the match to kill the messenger
And bury the truth
I'll take the blame the way I always do
To save you, from all the pain that grey brought you
They told you how to feel
Locked away your only voice
Broken yet surreal
The only way out is to run
Dismissing everything they taught you
Starting new again
Fire, light the match to kill the messenger
And bury the truth
I'll take the blame the way I always do
To save you, from all the pain that grey brought you
