Faces

Of all those words you could have chose

You just sat there silent

Of all those things I should have known

You just smiled and held your breath

You said these words would never save you

You said these lines could never change you

I know it means nothing to you

God it means everything to me

Cause I'm out here, still broken

Selling my soul so you would never end up alone

I'm focused enough to notice you

Had versions of the truth

One moment, it's over

Hold back my fear cause I'm about to let go

Words so hard

Never let them know

About the four letter words

Behind the faces you show

You were lost, but you were home

You were drenched in violence

You were changed and all alone

They saved your life but kept you here

You said these words would never save you

You said these lines can never change you

I know it means nothing to you

God it means everything to me

Cause I'm out here, still broken

Selling my soul so you would never end up alone

I'm focused enough to notice you

Had versions of the truth

One moment, it's over

Hold back my fear cause I'm about to let go

Words so hard

Never let them know

About the four letter words

Behind the faces you show

I pulled you closer to me

I held you down for so long

I felt when you couldn't breathe

I was there when it went wrong

Cause I'm out here, still broken

Selling my soul so you would never end up alone

I'm focused enough to notice you

Had versions of the truth

One moment, it's over

Hold back my fear cause I'm about to let go

Words so hard

Never let them know

About the four letter words

Behind the faces you show
