[Verse 1] I can hear the breaths before they hit my hands My eyes burn from the dry and the red I'm too damn young to have a tremor like this But I feel it, yeah, I feel it nonetheless Falling backwards but still sitting still Watching the ghosts climb up the hill [Pre-Chorus] If you get too close, just know the cost You’re not gonna make it, you’ll just get lost It’s not you, baby, I just can’t take it If there’s a "bad for you," I’m the one to make it [Chorus] And I don’t have a heart, I have a hole Where a cannonball used to be Just follow the traffic "Don’t look at the wreck, don't look at me" I show others the way but running for the flames myself You want to fix me, but there ain't nothing left [Verse 2] I don't fix myself, hell, I don't know if I would I never did a thing, even when they told me I could But let me help you, let me tell you now Girl, you better run, I’m here to hurt you I feel it coming down... yeah, I feel it coming down [Bridge] Every soul I save is a debt I’m trying to pay For the version of me that I threw away It’s my penance, my prayer, my quiet trade Fixing your foundation while mine starts to fade I’ll stay in the fire so you can stay cold Trading my silver for someone else’s gold [Chorus] And I don’t have a heart, I have a hole Where a cannonball used to be Just follow the traffic "Don’t look at the wreck, don't look at me" I show others the way but running for the flames myself You want to fix me, but there ain't nothing left [Outro] I'm all done denying. All I do is hurt... But... you can go, be safe. and find another way. [End]
