You're just sorry for yourself And though you may seem fine alone Don't tell me you're sorry If you could make them proud You could leave the world and feel like you've Tell them that it's only temporary I'm trying my best to smile But that's never

You think I'd leave your side, baby You know me better than that You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees I wouldn't do that And if only you could see into me I'll tell you when you're right Oh, when you're cold I'll be there Hold you

And I would give all this and heaven too I would give it all if only for a moment That I could just understand The meaning of the word you see 'Cause I've been scrawling it forever But it never makes sense to me at all But with all my education I can't

And never do what I used to And tell myself to think forward I will show I believe And I hold you up and know that you're all I see in the light I believe, I believe You can keep me a drip of the light that you see (Only if I could see) You would be

I can see the lights in front of me Free yourself to be yourself Hey now, do you know my name Hey now, where I'm going If I can't get an answer In your eyes I see it The lights of home If only you could If only you could see yourself

Into me, you'll see You got me wide open, now I'm ready You broke me wide open, open sesame Is this intimacy? I built a wall so high, no one could reach A life of locks, I swallowed up the keys I was petrified, only knew how to hide They can't hurt me if

You'd see you shine, you shine But if only you could see yourself in my eyes I know you'd never leave me behind But I am lost this time I could have told you ‘bout the long nights How no one loves the birds that don't rise So you can tell the heroes go

A man I'll never be You look up at me And somewhere in your mind you see If only I could find a way I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am And it gets harder every day for me To hide behind this dream you see If I said what's on my mind You'd turn

The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound If you could only see the beast you've made of me I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free My fingers claw your skin, try to tear my way in I hunt for you with bloodied feet across

The faith in me shall set me free, reflections Yes, I swear, if only you could understand Impossible to see the changes All they see is just the boy Behind these prison walls Doing my paces, doing my time I am spendin' my restless nights Visioning faces,
