Shared Trauma Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Am I still your excuse to go get high?
Flatlined, coma induced in record time
If I go down in flames, then what's the point of even trying?

[Chorus]
’Cause we share trauma and as we share trauma
It takes it to break it, woah
We share trauma and nothing's ever gonna erase it
So face it

[Verse 2]
To you (To you)
I'm drawn across this universe
And for you (For you)
I’m tempted from my dreams and cursed
In a state of emergency, and I'm afraid it's getting worse

[Chorus]
'Cause we share trauma and as we sharе trauma
It takes it to break it, woah
We sharе trauma and nothing's ever gonna erase it
So face it

[Bridge]
I'm running on empty
Will you armor me
For battle? I'm afraid
That all my veins and never-ending tragedies
Will bleed my heart empty
And scare your love away

See Pierce The Veil Live

Get tickets as low as $105

[Chorus]
'Cause we share trauma and as we share trauma
It takes it to break it, woah
We share trauma and nothing’s ever gonna erase it
So face it
Oh

[Outro]
We share this
We share this
We share this
We share this

What have the artists said about the song?

The title kind of speaks for itself. I’ve always felt that shared trauma and going through a traumatic experience with somebody can be one of the strongest bonds in human existence. Knowing that you’ve both been through something together will always connect you in such a powerful way. I think that’s beautiful—it’s the good that can come out of the bad. Musically, it was very much a collaborative band effort that came out of this loopy analog beat that Jaime sent me. It was really fun to write.
