Songtexte

Blood that's long been soiled
Yeah it's starting to feel clean
Open wounds are finally shut
Though scar tissue remains
I trace it with my fingers
To remind myself of past mistakes
Hands do tremble
As I remember
Shame crashes over in waves that sting
A familiar ebb and flow
I've constructed myself such a fortress strong
But it echoes with every blow
The balance that I've struck it holds
But it would only take a well-placed nudge
Sirens bottled
Freed they throttle
Wait, wait
There's something at the gates
You can hear its heavy breathing
As it's clawing at the paint
Too late, too late
There's no keeping it at bay
The door begins to splinter
You can hear it as it sings
I'm so glad I found you
You must've been so damn scared
Did you wander off and forget you left me
Sitting there on that shelf
Now that I've got my arms around you
I'm gonna sing you back to sleep
I'll nurse every one of those bad habits
You neglected without me
Days I've counted more than once
Never do add up
The thing about new beginnings
Is that there's always another one
There's peace in this equilibrium
Pride in not having to abstain
Self-determined
Or deluded
Wander right back, same old path, slip on through
Once removed I can see the trap I fall into
Wander right back, same old path, slip on through
As if on cue
Wait, wait
There's something at the gates
You can hear its heavy breathing
As it's clawing at the paint
Too late, too late
There's no keeping it at bay
The door begins to splinter
You can hear it as it sings
I'm so glad I found you
You must've been so damn scared
Did you wander off and forget you left me
Sitting there on that shelf
Now that I've got my arms around you
I'm gonna sing you back to sleep
I'll nurse every one of those bad habits
You neglected without me
Without me
