Old Ghost Proof (Cinematic Gospel Dreamcut)

[Verse 1] We called it awful Back when we were kids We saw the bruises Then learned to keep our lips They said, “That’s normal” And we believed that line Too young to know They were feeding us a lie [Pre-Chorus] Now I look back hard At the dirt and the shame We were just small hands Signing on to their game [Chorus] We were so naive We were so naive Took every word Like it came from God We were so naive We were so naive Now the truth sits heavy Where the story was taught [Verse 2] I’ve seen the old hurt In the family name Passed like a pocket watch Or a match for flame And I hate how easy It was to call it fate When a room full of silence Could teach a kid to wait [Pre-Chorus] Now I know better Than to bow to the crowd Some truths come limping But they still speak loud [Chorus] We were so naive We were so naive Took every word Like it came from God We were so naive We were so naive Now the truth sits heavy Where the story was taught [Bridge] I’m healing better All the time Still got scars that ache When the weather turns It’s a disturbing thing The shape of what we learned But I’m standing straighter Every time I burn [Final Chorus] We were so naive We were so naive Took every word Like it came from God We were so naive We were so naive Now the truth sits heavy Where the story was taught We were so naive We were so naive I’m healing better Though it’s not clear yet to me
