Cracks In the Earth

In the bigger picture I've been painted out

Cracks in the earth blacken the sea

No canvas is reserved for me

Look up close and try to see

In every stroke lies past alone

Too close to home

Cutting too close to bone

The ink has dried and words reveal

Too close to home

Cutting too close to the bone

It's too easy to admit defeat

You aren't a child fighting in a war

Son please don't tell me that this is bored

Tear your things out from the earth

Long departed we're so short sighted

Too close to home

Cutting too close to bone

The ink has dried and words reveal

Too close to home

Cutting too close to the bone

It's too easy to admit defeat

Too close to home

Cutting too close to bone

The ink has dried and words reveal

Too close to home

Cutting too close to the bone

It's too easy to admit defeat
