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, oh, pace myself again
Carried this torch on my head never again
