Marks Video (MV)

We all bare our marks and we open them up
Just to prove to ourselves that we're not living numb
Under the callus there is only malice
Worst kept regrets haunting what's left
All these ties and these ropes leave me with only ghosts

Now keep in mind the change of times
Are the highs worth the lows?
You ask me so I tell you
Things will change

And we're not gonna stop it
So roll with the punches
Stand aside because my foot's through the floor, the holes in the drywall aren't enough
There is more
And so I'll fend for myself and hope that no-one else will see the worst within me

We all bare our marks and we open them up
Just to prove to ourselves that were not living numb
Under the callus there is only malice
Worst kept regrets haunting what's left
All these ties and these ropes leave me with only ghost

I'll keep in mind the change of times
Are the highs worth the lows?
You ask me so I tell you
We define our former lives
Are the highs worth the lows?
You asked me, so I'll tell you

It's more than safe to say that nothing stays the same
Whether it blooms and grows or just dissolves and decays
And sometimes the only voice that can shed some light are four walls that speak to you in hindsight
And I know the floorboards could expose more than words could ever relay
It's hard to paint a portrait of yourself when you're identifying the remains
I've tried my best to explain this but the most I can say is nothing gold can stay

Are the highs worth the lows?
You asked me
How can I tell you?
That it's just a shame
What a sad sight to see that I'll always be this way
A hollow shell
Vacant of who I used to be

I'll keep in mind the change of times
Are the highs worth the lows?
You ask me so I tell you
We redefine our former lives
Are the highs worth the lows
You ask me so I tell you Now keep in mind
The change of times
Are the highs worth the lows you asked me and now you know
Nothing gold can stay
