Open Wrists - System Syn

I can’t say, I look better to you then I did to myself

On that long road of running away

All the things in the past you don’t try to grasp

You’re just happy that it’s a new day

And we share this in twilight, the distance, the hindsight

Quiet as if we were prey

But I knew all along, from the start of this song

You’d play this as I was walking away

Let it never be said that I left you alone

Or that I was better then all that you’ve known

Please show how to carve these wrists to the bone

The bleed out, the twilight, the end of the poem

There’s a word we all know, I may have used it a lot

When I talk to myself but now it seems you’ve forgot

But don’t lose any sleep, what is gone won’t come back

Let it live in my eyes till my vision goes black

Still we share this in twilight, the distance, the hindsight

It’s not enough just to stay

But you knew all along from the start of this song

That I’d hurt you and then walk away

Let it never be said that I left you alone

Or that I was better then all that you’ve known

Please show how to carve these wrists to the bone

The bleed out, the twilight, the end of the poem

So now it’s up to you

You know I could wait a lifetime

Since I’m defined by my restraint

Now you don’t have to ask

Let it never be said that I left you alone

Or that I was better then all that you’ve known

Please show how to carve these wrists to the bone

The bleed out, the twilight, the end of the poem
