lyrics

i gotta get something off my chest
and I don't have the words for it
but I know it's there
cuz I can't breathe like this

you fall away from what you are
and plant the seed down in the dark
and the bitter root takes hold and chokes your life
and the shadow grows like ore inside the tomb

what should've been wild, i kept for myself
what should've been flung to the wind, i counted
i wanted to be the bell in your ballast
instead i poisoned the well that we drink from

i'm feeling like marble melting
flicker of tenderness
we don't need no more love here
just forgiveness

i sold you on the lie of me
and held you to a higher aim
but maybe we're just broken beasts
trying to make a way

what should've been wild, i kept for myself
what should've been flung to the wind, i counted
i wanted to be the bell in your ballast
instead i poisoned the well that we drink from
