Reconciliation. Fix my pain, I don’t need anyone else. I didn’t think I could feel like this until you. I’ll keep you safe and would do anything to fix your pain, even to my own detriment. Pull this hurt from these nameless girls out of my heart and replace it with your arrow. Bring our garden back...
[Chorus]
Tear the tears out of my open eyes
For I no longer need to drown in the ocean of another
Tear the tears out of my open eyes
Above a buried garden we've both lived in
And bring me back to life
[Verse 1]
I promised I’d be devoid of devotion
Until a blinding light could thaw me from my core
Shining between the lips of lacerations
As we compare the way that we burn to the sun
[Pre-Chorus]
Throw yourself into the middle of my arms
And I swear I'll keep you safe
The scars that you keep secret were placed upon my limbs
And I would fill them in with my flesh if I could
I swear I'll keep you safe
[Chorus]
Tear the tears out of my open eyes
For I no longer need to drown in the ocean of another
Tear the tears out of my open eyes
Above a buried garden we’ve both lived in
And bring me back to life
[Verse 2]
Pull the nameless arrow from my chest
And exchange it with your own
Replace the hurt within me with a stare that watches over me
When I allow myself to sleep
[Breakdown]
The scars that you keep secret were placed upon my limbs
And I would fill them in with my flesh if I could
[Bridge]
(So throw yourself into the middle of my arms
And I swear I'll keep you safe)
[Chorus]
Tear the tears out of my open eyes
For I no longer need to drown in the ocean of another
Tear the tears out of my open eyes
Above a buried garden we've both lived in
To bring me back to life
