lyrics

A brittle bridge has honed me all my life
Forever spoken to in tongues with no silver line
Take it all, breathe in, your struggling
Minds are bound to bend and break when stretched so thin

I’ve fallen almost every time
To a flash of searing light

You’ve never called for answers
And hearts ripped from their sleeves, how they take a toll
Sooth each bruise with a bait hooked bite of something whole
Some wounds bleed out, but you can’t suture a broken home

I’ll see you in the end

I’ve fallen almost every time
To a flash of searing light
Oh, behold as I unfold become
The man I was the light from when I was young
I’ll see you in the end
