I’ve been gone so long

Home feels like a place of novel

(A place of novel)

Feeling make believe

A ghost of who I should be

A ghost of me

I kept my heart from breaking by keeping it on ice

I used to drown it out until I thought I’d forgotten

Turns out some wounds will never heal

I’m sorry I turned out this way

A living scar of my own pain

I thought I’d drowned it out until I thought I’d forgotten

Turns out some wounds will never heal

Festering part of me I can’t live without

Sorry I let you down

I’m sorry I’ve been so cold

Trying to give you strength but you just needed a hand to hold

I wanted to be stronger

I left my heart alone

Trying to push further and I turned myself to stone

I’ve been looking within this man I need to change

(Been letting go of all the pain)

So engrained, calloused by hate

Pull apart the threads of my being

Dig up the past

I’m ready to feel it

Pull apart the threads of my being

Trying to be strong

I turned my heart to stone

I watched you sink until you drowned

I’m sorry I let you down

Sorry I let you down

I’m sorry I’ve been so cold

Trying to give you strength but you just needed a hand to hold

I wanted to be stronger

I left my heart alone

Trying to push further and I turned myself to stone

I’ve been looking within this man I need to change

(I’m sorry I let you down)

Been letting go of all the pain

(I’m sorry I’ve been so cold)

So engrained, calloused by hate

(Trying to be strong)

Pull apart the threads of my being

(I turned myself to stone)
