I'm trying, but still, I close my eyes The dreaming, bringing his face to mine (Lock the door) The constant buzzing all through the night The fighting rips me all up inside (On the floor) I pace, I run my mouth I pray and wait I cross out his name on the page
(How long 'til) , this washes away? (How long 'til) , my body is safe? (How long 'til) , I walk in the light? (How long 'til) , this heart isn't mine?
The rise and fall of his chest on me I'm trying, but still, it's all I see The violent current of energy I hide it away and underneath (Lock the door) I shake I promise every day to change I cross out his name on the page
(How long 'til) , this washes away? (How long 'til) , my body is safe? (How long 'til) , I walk in the light? (How long 'til) , this heart isn't mine?
Take this wildness away, ah And away, ah And away, ah
I'm trying, but still, I close my eyes The dreaming, bringing his face to mine (Out the door) I pace, I run my mouth I pray to change I cross out his name on the page
(How long 'til) , this washes away? (How long 'til) , my body is safe? (How long 'til) , this heart isn't mine?
