Take a breath in
This might hurt for a little while
It might bleed for a minute
On top of my skin
The blood seeping through the band-aid
But it all runs deeper than this
It all runs deeper than this
Keeping my distance for all these years
Suddenly it's creeping up on me
It's all coming down
I'm calling you out for this
And I'm calling home
Clouds closing in
The family tree blows in the yard
The leaves fall around me
The drops on my skin
Roots underground drink it in
But it all runs deeper than you
It all runs deeper than you
Never thought I'd see you as a victim
I had to forget my pain
You had to obliterate yours
And now I'm left feeling everything
At least you're still breathing
Keeping my distance for all these years
Suddenly it's creeping up on me
It's all coming down
I'm calling you out for this
And I'm calling home
