You rested your nervous head In the fold of my neck Said you feared the failure That followed you From every place you've been To every place you'll go You cut your ties to let them know That this is far enough That this is far enough But every bridge you burn Can be rebuilt again Still I have noticed That far away look That has settled into your eyes It is pouring out of you by the hour now Like a river swollen by a season of hard rain There is nowhere else for it to go So it continually swallows itself And swells again And swallows What's done is done, is done, is done You cannot shoulder the weight Of the choices you've made So you bury your face In the depths of your shame
