Lyrics
I tried to be someone, scorched feathers upon the sun.
I tried to pretend this here world was not painful or real at all.
I tried to be like you, hide away from the cold harsh truth.
Cracked reflections of the hero & the heroine I once knew.
I know it's hard, I know it's real.
But now I have become someone that you could never heal.
And I tried like you never, you left me to teach myself.
And I cried & swallowed my tears, salty exhausted fears.
I tried to teach myself but I couldn't unlock my cell.
I tried to douse the ice & fire, to melt, to quell this frozen hell.
I know it's hard, I know it's real.
But now I have become someone that you could never heal.
And I tried like you never, you left me to teach myself.
And I cried & swallowed my tears, salty exhausted fears.
And I lied to protect you both & I still suffer to help.
And my scars still tear open even after all these years.
And I tried like you never, you pushed me to the edge.
I tried to help myself but I really need your help.
I tried to be someone that you could both be proud of.
Be proud of me.
And I tried like you never, you left me to teach myself.
And I cried & swallowed my tears, salty exhausted fears.
And I lied to protect you both & I still suffer to help.
And my scars still tear open even after all these years.
