Breathing Through the Wound

I think of where I’ve been and where I’m at

That it wouldn’t take a lot to backtrack

Ongoing process going on under my hat

Will never let myself fall back down

Used as ammunition

Fuelled by simmering rage

Scars are a reminder

Of my past mistakes

He won’t become me

I’m twice the man he’ll ever fucking be

I remember when I wanted to die

I remember when I went to try

I remember watching the trains fly by

Working up courage to take my life

Times have changed

I am not the same

Times have changed

Scars are proof of my pain

So much has changed in me from way back then

I never thought that I’d be here with friends

Held it together and didn’t pretend

I am better but never at the end

I am

Breathing Through The Wound

Breathing Through The Wound

I am

Breathing Through The Wound

Breathing Through The Wound

He won’t become me

I’m twice the man he’ll ever be
