Every word you left behind still cuts my skin Like a secret blade I keep tucked in Shadows of a love that I can’t step back in Fragile glass where my heart’s been I replay the scene where you said goodbye Your eyes went cold, but I never knew why Now I’m left with echoes in an empty room And the silence blooms into exit wounds And I’m haunted in the night By the ghost of what felt right Trying to mend a broken truth But all I see are exit wounds I carry you beneath my veins A memory wrapped in endless pain The light I chased has turned to gloom I can’t escape these exit wounds Every scar still tells your name A battlefield I can’t reclaim I wanted healing, but it’s too soon I can’t escape these exit wounds Promises you made still echo like a curse Every line rehearsed, but it still feels worse You said forever, but forever was a lie I’m still bleeding slowly, though I try to dry I stitch myself with threads that fray Pulling tighter just to keep decay But the seams won’t hold, and the truth resumes All I’m left with are these exit wounds And I’m haunted in the night By the ghost of what felt right Trying to mend a broken truth But all I see are exit wounds I carry you beneath my veins A memory wrapped in endless pain The light I chased has turned to gloom I can’t escape these exit wounds Every scar still tells your name A battlefield I can’t reclaim I wanted healing, but it’s too soon I can’t escape these exit wounds [A youthful male with a Shakespearean accent speaking] "These violent delights have violent ends, And in their triumph die, like fire and powder, Which, as they kiss, consume." [instrumental break — strings and reverb-heavy guitar swelling into silence] I carry you beneath my veins A memory wrapped in endless pain The light I chased has turned to gloom I can’t escape these exit wounds Every scar still tells your name A battlefield I can’t reclaim I wanted healing, but it’s too soon I can’t escape these exit wounds No, I can’t escape… These exit wounds The silence blooms… Into exit wounds.
