I am the heat inside your chest, I am the hand laid on your breast above your heart to tell you everything you feel is real
So soft spoken, words of doubt and fear dribble from your mouth to form the ocean of your insecurities right at my feet
And you act as if I'm not there, formed from broken places elsewhere like I got behind the wheel in my hometown and won't look back
My own problems lay behind me but they catch up cause that black sea left behind has a tide and it swells up to follow me

Every single mistake
Every broken heart
Every time I've felt alone it's cause I thought I was at home but just awoke to find myself and only me
Only me

Grains of sand in my hand, fistfuls of life that fall apart when I turn them over to see what the talk is about
And it seeps through my fingers and some through my skin as I take with me a memory of when you and I were stone and sand

Every single mistake
Every broken heart
Every time I've felt alone its cause I thought I was at home but just awoke to find myself and only me
Only me

I am an abandoned house left to rot in the clouds and the weather My passion sparked up a flame in the chimney the fire flowing over into every room
Out through every window that I used to stare out of
Into everything out of time, I must get out so I can watch the things I love disintegrate and turn to ash
Ash and dust

Every single mistake
Every broken heart
Every time I've felt alone its cause I thought I was at home but just awoke to find myself and only me
Only me
