I try to stay on top of you To hold your body down Your shaking seems to hinder Every grasp that I had found Moving every inch around you to diffuse your private bomb I stretch my self surrounding And protecting you from harm
I use a wallet for your mouth So when you bite you will not bleed I drilled a wire through my cheek And let it down and out my sleeve And now you’re pulling out the best of me Yeah which never ever comes This wire is all that’s left of me And its hooked within my gums, within my gums
Chorus So drill it, so drill it, so hard i feel it (so hard)…it’s Okay x2
I hate to show a need for this I cut myself to shame To get to know who this masochist Who’s stolen my first name Pretending he’s a teacher Holding all my weight at ease But the teacher seems to split in two Destroying both his knees and now crawling I position myself Below your broken wings I lift your feathered left arm Where you hide your heart from me I never noticed it was swollen With a touch brutal pain I never knew a heart could live inside The rust from all your rain, all your rain
Chorus
I didn't think to bring a washcloth Or to rub away the dirt Myself & I we share This barely beating heart of hurt and when the hurt comes there’s an argument A fight to save a smile A small attack on human tears To dry them for a while A dream we all should count on Yeah a vision I believe And where confidence is found Attached to wires on our sleeve And where loneliness is history Told to pack your shit and leave And when guidance is a fortune Told to help in time of need And where crying isn’t secret It’s the art of how we grieve And lessons are the key To every goal I will achieve, I will achieve
