Bitterness
Clenched in my fist
Hopelessness
Puckers my lips
I think I'm losing touch
I think I'm not good enough
I know you don't think of us
But I'll still sit here and tell you
[Don't go]
I'm begging, please
[I'm hollow]
I'll just wrap the wounds
You left on me
[Don't go]
It's sickening
[I'm hollow]
The way you hold the part
That completes me
I know you don't know me
But my body's empty and lonely
Can you hold me close
Like a thorn on a rose?
Peel it back
Peel it back now
I want to see skin and bone
I want to feel at home
But I'm just a body you don't know
This insolence surrounds me
As I ponder if I'm drowning
But I'll know I'm safe
When I see your face
In 16 years and 18 days
I'll wonder if you
Remember my name
As the time burns slow
Watch the embers glow
[Don't go]
I'm begging, please
[I'm hollow]
I'll just wrap the wounds
You left on me
[Don't go]
It's sickening
[I'm hollow]
The way you hold the part
That completes me
I know you don't know me
But my body's empty and lonely
Can you hold me close
Like a thorn on a rose?
Peel it back
Peel it back now
I want to see skin and bone
I want to feel at home
But I'm just a body you don't know
Just a body you don't know
