lyrics

My skin is new and smooth
and ready for scars.
Not where did I leave my heart?
It's lost and found by
your burning match.
Thanks, I know it's your last.
But there's a light behind me
I'm always discarding.
This is my goddamn tunnel.
I have a healthy death wish,
like that's something special-
It feels like rain on metal.

I'm carving out a chunk of sky
for you when it's hard getting by.
You can keep it in your pocket.
And what's left behind-
was it ever really mine?
Or another pointless souvenir?
But there's a light behind it,
I'm always reminded,
brought back to the token of the moment.
I nod and mimic a smile,
and it hurt once in a while,
stretching and tearing at the corners.

---------

Know,
when I say you,
I don't mean you,
I mean all of you

Straight forward words
I never heard from you
Oh, your words have always rang untrue.
