Picking Scabs

from Bind Me A Wreath by Enemies

/

lyrics

I've spent forever and ever
Trying to fill this page
A white sheet of paper
A sign of surrender

Paralysing hatred and empty space
Nothing I say really takes
I'm all used up
I've become a mourner

Since you pulled away from me
Since we broke my spine cracked like a twig
I effectively lost my centre
And I'm decidedly on the decline

Been kicking these walls for too long
To realise what really went wrong
No wonder I'm all alone again
Empty eyes, I'm an empty space

I suppose it's high time to clear the air
And lay it all out there
Own up to the shit I've done
And the mistakes I've made

Being selfish, being an asshole
Being distant and drifting away
Not being there when you needed me
Because it's always all about me

I know I come across as bitter
But there's just so much sadness you can take
Before it rubs off on you
I need to be wanted, not needed

If you ever want anything
Best be prepared to lose it
Because everything expires
Everything eventually dies

And the process of healing
Becomes an endless campaign of getting even
It's not your fault but mine;
No one could ever hurt me like I could

No one could ever hurt me like I could
