My Hands

I wake in the morning

Tired of sleeping

Get in the shower

And make my bed alone

I put on my make up

Talk into the mirror

Ready for a new day

Without you

And I walk steady on my feet

I talk my voice obeys me

I go out at night

Sleep without the lights

And I do all of the things I have to

Keeping you off  my mind

But when I think I'll be alright

I am always wrong cause

My hands don't wanna start again

My hands no they don't wanna understand

My hands they just shake and try to break whatever peace I may find

My hands they only agree to hold

Your hands and they don't wanna be without

Your hands and they will not let me go

No they will not let me go

I talk about you now

And go a day without crying

I go out with my friends now

I stay home late alone

And I don't see you every where

And I can say your name easily

I laugh a little louder

Without you

And I see different shades now

I'm almost never afraid now

But when I think I'll be okay

I am always wrong cause

My hands don't wanna start again

My hands no they don't wanna understand

My hands they just shake and try to break whatever peace I may find

My hands they only agree to hold

Your hands no they don't wanna be without

Your hands and they will not let me go

No they will not let me go

Sometimes I wake

I see them reaching out for you

Quietly breaking

Whatever shields I spent so long building up

I cannot fake

Cause when they cry I'm almost broken

They miss holding my baby

My hands

No they don't wanna understand

They just shake and try to break whatever peace I may find

My hands

Your hands

Your hands

My hands don't wanna start again

My hands no they don't wanna understand

My hands shake and try to break whatever peace I may find

My hands only agree to hold

Your hands no they don't wanna be without

Your hands and they will not let me go

No they will not let me go

No they will not let me go
