lyrics

We were raised in envied homes
Innocent but curious to the bone
We clung tight to the roots inside
Until the glorious cancer caught your eyes
You didn't heed the warning signs
Apathy consumed your mind
The light in your eyes began to fade
Long after you washed your sins away
There's a hole deep inside my heart you left behind
It echoes with uncertainty
Nothing worth having comes easy
A white flag at a busy bar
A souvenir of an empty heart
On a quest for a strong prescription
Now there's nothing to lose
You throw yourself away
No way out, it's a long way down
If your heart was on display to that innocent child you used to be
You'd shake your head and you'd weep out loud
And curse the anchor holding you to the ground
There's hope deep inside my heart
I pray you'll find
Eyes lock in grim regret
Nothing worth having comes easy
