Blackwinterwells - thread lyrics

Now you know
Why I call you home
With your arms
Wrapped around me
Slip and fall in the abyss
But you catch me
Thought I died a thousand times
But I'm standing
But I’m standing
And you know I'm getting old
As my bones start to buckle
Tried to run but I can't move
So I stumble
It was hard to let you in
But I still did
But I still did

And you made it safe
And you made it safe
For me to breathe
Made it safe
Made it safe

It’s hard to clean my oozing wounds
It's hard to feel like I'm deserving
Of the love I get from you
It's hard to sleep under this moon
Because I only have nightmares
And they're all about losing you
"Trust me"
You say, "Just trust me"
But it's been centuries
And I can't stop the bleeding
But you say, "Oh, please"
"Open your heart to me"
But I've been armored for so long
A glance would kill me
I can’t show myself
Because my spirit is frail
And I can’t even trust my instincts
'cause they’re broken as well
So, I'll show no one else
What's inside of my shell
It's been so long that
I’ve forgotten who I really am

Wish I could be a marionette
Someone else use me
And empty my hands
I'm scared to look
Within and see who I am
What if I hate it?
What am I to do then?
