Fell Behind Lyrics

Holes in plastered walls

Claw marks on the door

Chip away at the remains of what is left inside her

Splinters under skin

Shards of broken glass

Left alone in the remains of what she held inside her

Hide and seek again when will she learn

Nineteen years to grow the confidence to tell myself to leave

Vowed to change then fell short of the mark

Chapter Four of the same storyline we wrote when we were free

Hands behind my back

Stand there taking fire

Sting of sweat and blood

Hanging by a wire

Curse away the pain

Lost and folding in

I flinch before she strikes

Then she'll justify it

Wrapped in pain on the floor, all the tears in your eyes yet

You said it before, mind your course and stay in line

Bruised and broke, dead inside, and I swear I'll be fine though

It's not all your fault you explain, not this time

Broken down, feeling it now, I'll show you how

Nowhere to run, stay as one, I am done

We fell behind

You were all mine

Lie about my plans

Reading pattern moods

Recognize the overwhelming urge to run before she knows

Explain away the scars

Just another fall

Internalize the overwhelming sense of idleness and fear

Hide and seek again when will she learn

Caught behind the walls I built from pieces she told me were gone

Vowed to change then fell short of the mark

Twist my words to take advantage of my distress you feed on

Hands behind my back

Stand there taking fire

Sting of sweat and blood

Hanging by a wire

Curse away the pain

Lost and folding in

Flinch before she strikes

Then she'll justify it

Wrapped in pain on the floor, all the tears in your eyes yet

You said it before, mind your course and stay in line

Bruised and broke, dead inside, and I swear I'll be fine though

It's not all your fault you explain, not this time

Broken down, feeling it now, I'll show you how

Nowhere to run, stay as one, I am done

We fell behind

You were all mine

We fell behind

You were all mine

Fell behind

Wrapped in pain on the floor, all the tears in your eyes yet

You said it before, mind your course and stay in line

Bruised and broke, dead inside, and I swear I'll be fine though

It's not all your fault you explain, not this time

Broken down, feeling it now, I'll show you how

Nowhere to run, stay as one, I am done

We fell behind

You were all mine

We fell behind

You were all mine
