Worn

Working so hard

To keep myself in

I'm wearing the scars

Of where I haven't been...yet

Working so hard

Crawling this far

Clutching the shards

Of what was torn apart

Patience worn down

Edges worn round

Threading unwound

Losing my ground

I'm up against an old brick wall

I've dug my nails in

Anchored to the same old sore

Here is where I know I've been

Worn out

Draws me in

Brace myself

Again

Pour out

I'm giving this up

I pace myself again

Dug my nails in

I've carried this torch

This...far

I can't take this much

Worn out

Draws me in

I brace myself

Again

Pour out

I'm giving this up

I pace myself again

Working so hard

Holding this in

I'm wearing the scars

Of what I haven't been

I'm up against an old brick wall

I've dug my nails in

Anchored to the same old sore

Here is where I know I've been

Worn out

Draws me in

I brace myself

Again

Pour out

I'm giving this up

O pace myself again

Carried this torch

On my head...

Never again
