Lyrics

Your careless words cut through me
As sharp as a knife
How smoothly it glides
I carry an ancient fear
You got it from them
Our inheritance
And sometimes it makes me feel so small (so small, so small)
like there’s nothing left of me at all (at all, at all)
I followed the words like sacred law (like sacred law)
But all of this time, who’s keeping score?
Oh-oh-oh I’ve known it my entire life
That I-I-I’m weighed down by your sacrifice
I wore the guilt you gave to me,
I tore it off and now I’m free
Thankful that they kept me warm,
But I won’t wear your hand me downs
No more
No more
I thought I was born to please
Drawn to their praise
Ashamed of my mistakes
Maybe it was worth the grief
Every tear carried me here
Oh-oh-oh I’ve known it my entire life
That I-I-I’m weighed down by your sacrifice
I wore the guilt you gave to me,
I tore it off and now I’m free
Thankful that they kept me warm,
But I won’t wear your hand me downs
No more
Oh-oh-oh I’ve known it my entire life
That I-I-I’m weighed down by your sacrifice
I wore the guilt you gave to me,
I tore it off and now I’m free
Thankful that they kept me warm,
But I won’t wear your hand me downs
No more
No more
