Intro verse 1 Putting pennies on the track, shiny and flat, It was the best we could be, sexy and free I grow away from myself with each passing bell With all these new accessories, I just stumble and bleed For a moment I feel the coldness At the end of a fall day I put my hands down deep in my pockets As my body awakes verse 2 So I'm heading back to school all brilliant and new, Trying hard to fit in and not to walk like a man A girl that I never noticed asked me to hold this A secret too hard to tell and I never will For a moment I feel the coldness Of everything that's been taken away I put the phone back in the cradle, I can't make this okay Bridge The damage she'll survive But damn the sacrifice of Every life we've lost Damn all the cost of the assault verse 3 You tied a knot and you dared me, The stem of a cherry, To find my own humanity And just let it breathe Hold my head up in this moment Keep myself from fading away Pull my hands out of pockets and Feel my body awake Outro
