Lyrics
My eyelids are heavier
Than they’ve ever been
I pull the darkness
Up to my chin
This life in sawdust
I bent my back building roofs
Turning holes into windows
Then I came back home to you
The silence you hear
Is the violence I feel
In this emptiness you see
I am down on my broken knees
Please stay close to me
Bombs started falling
When I spoke my first words
My lungs started crumbling
When I was ready to be heard
I signed a truce with fear
When you picked me from the crowd
You led our first dance
Into this tender hideout
The silence you hear
Is the violence I feel
In this emptiness you see
I am down on my broken knees
Oh please stay close to me
