Convalescence

[Intro]
I know that you're scared
Doesn't make you less of a man
Swing hard, fall short
It's all part of the plan

[Verse 1]
Brother take my hand and search my face
Look in these eyes, there is no shame
You and I, we are the same
I know you've been told differently
But there's nothing wrong with you that you can't fix
I understand you (I understand you)
Life won't always be like this

[Chorus]
We left that place so long ago
But I can't undo the knots in you
Things are different to the life that we once knew
Passion, blind passion
Blurs our sense of direction
You don't have to carry this on your own
Let me help you let it go

[Verse 2]
He can't hurt you anymore
No more sunglasses to school
When you're told you're stupid your whole life
You start to think it's true
Our idea of love is so warped
It barely shines through
All the stupid shit we've done
And who we devote it to

[Chorus]
We left that place so long ago
But I can't undo the knots in you
Things are different to the life that we once knew
Passion, blind passion
Haunts our sense of direction
You don't have to carry this on your own
Let me help you let it go

[Bridge/Outro]
I know that you've been told differently
But there's nothing wrong with you that you can't fix
I understand you (I understand you)
Life won't always be like this
I understand you (I understand you)
It won't always be like this
I know that you've been told differently
But there's nothing wrong with you that you can't fix
I understand you (I understand you)
Life won't always be like this
