Oh!

There's so much going on
Inside this heart of stone
Every single night, when I die alone

This feeling fills the halls
Inside this empty house
I nearly can’t fit inside

And I wish I could speak it out
Say it out loud
Scream my heart out
And run to you

Because I keep lying down
And rolling ‘round
Keep cutting it down, but it grows!
Keep holding back, but it shows!

If I only knew
How much I’d long for you
And how it felt to say goodbye

I wouldn’t have swallowed back (swallowed back)
Those words I never said (never said)
Those tears I never cried for you

Because now that you’re not around (not around)
They just come shooting back out (shoot back out)
And pierce so many holes in my pillow

And it feels like years ago (feels like year ago)
When I looked into the mirror and watched you go (looked and watched you go)
You turned your back, but I couldn’t turn my eyes

You drew us side by side
And just now I realize
I also drew you in me!

And I wish I could have parked the car
And said it out loud
And screamed my heart out
And never left

But now I keep lying down
And rolling ‘round
Keep cutting it down, but it grows!
Keep holding back, but it shows!

I’ll hold it tight, oh lord no!
No, I don’t wanna let it go!
I won’t cut down, let it grow!
I won’t hold back, let it show!

Alright
