lyrics

Tried to teach you how to grieve
And how to sing loud, how to sing loud
Tried to teach you to be brave
And to stand your ground, to stand your ground

But you dug into my skin, wouldn’t let go
Didn’t know it was that thin, let the blood flow
Oh you found the weakest thing, and you pulled hard
Didn’t know you broke the string between our hearts

May they lay down their rods
With the sharpness that breaks their souls
Upon their sickness I would have trod
They gotta learn how to use their hearts
May they send us to a home
Oh they can buy back their souls
Until then in this cage I’ll roam
They gotta learn how to use their hearts

The things that I learned
Made me watch you, till I caught you
When you dropped your guard and turned
Oh I lost you, never crossed you

But you dug into my skin, wouldn’t let go
Didn’t know it was that thin, let the blood flow
Oh you found the weakest thing, and you pulled hard
Didn’t know you broke the string between our hearts

May they lay down their rods
With the sharpness that breaks their souls
Upon their sickness I would have trod
They gotta learn how to use their hearts
May they send us to a home
Oh they can buy back their souls
Until then in this cage I’ll roam
They gotta learn how to use their hearts
