We are not young enough to know How to sit and say nothing like we would And you are too tired to control How you look like you feel, like you should And you think I don't notice The way that you were And act like you don't feel it The way that you were And you barely believe it The way that you were And I am so ready To tear that knife from what once Would have been dead fingers Lying blue against the floor And you will no longer Stand between collapsing walls Wearing a smile Like you cannot bear it anymore Come on, tear off the bandage The way that you were With pain as your language The way that you were Will you show me the damage? The way that you were No How much did they hurt you? The way that you were And how much did they break you? The way that you were And how far did they take you? The way that you were You were (oh, no, and I) (You will never be the same, oh, no) (You will never be the same, oh, no) (You will never be the same, oh, no) (Oh-oh-oh-oh...)
