| Tear the tears out of my open eyes
|
| For I no longer need to drown in the ocean of another
|
| Tear the tears out of my open eyes
|
| Above a buried garden we’ve both lived in
|
| And bring me back to life
|
| I promised I’d be devoid of devotion
|
| Until a blinding light could thaw me from my core
|
| Shining between the lips of lacerations
|
| As we compare the way that we burn to the sun
|
| Throw yourself into the middle of my arms
|
| And I swear I’ll keep you safe
|
| The scars that you keep secret were placed upon my limbs
|
| And I would fill them in with my flesh if I could
|
| I swear I’ll keep you safe
|
| Tear the tears out of my open eyes
|
| For I no longer need to drown in the ocean of another
|
| Tear the tears out of my open eyes
|
| Above a buried garden we’ve both lived in
|
| And bring me back to life
|
| Pull the nameless arrow from my chest
|
| And exchange it with your own
|
| Replace the hurt within me with a stare that watches over me
|
| When I allow myself to sleep
|
| The scars that you keep secret were placed upon my limbs
|
| And I would fill them in with my flesh if I could
|
| (So throw yourself into the middle of my arms
|
| And I swear I’ll keep you safe)
|
| Tear the tears out of my open eyes
|
| For I no longer need to drown in the ocean of another
|
| Tear the tears out of my open eyes
|
| Above a buried garden we’ve both lived in
|
| To bring me back to life |
