Lyrics Open Wrists - System Syn

Open Wrists

I can’t say, I look better to you then I did to myself
On that long road of running away
All the things in the past you don’t try to grasp
You’re just happy that it’s a new day
And we share this in twilight, the distance, the hindsight
Quiet as if we were prey
But I knew all along, from the start of this song
You’d play this as I was walking away
Let it never be said that I left you alone
Or that I was better then all that you’ve known
Please show how to carve these wrists to the bone
The bleed out, the twilight, the end of the poem
There’s a word we all know, I may have used it a lot
When I talk to myself but now it seems you’ve forgot
But don’t lose any sleep, what is gone won’t come back
Let it live in my eyes till my vision goes black
Still we share this in twilight, the distance, the hindsight
It’s not enough just to stay
But you knew all along from the start of this song
That I’d hurt you and then walk away
Let it never be said that I left you alone
Or that I was better then all that you’ve known
Please show how to carve these wrists to the bone
The bleed out, the twilight, the end of the poem
So now it’s up to you
You know I could wait a lifetime
Since I’m defined by my restraint
Now you don’t have to ask
Let it never be said that I left you alone
Or that I was better then all that you’ve known
Please show how to carve these wrists to the bone
The bleed out, the twilight, the end of the poem
