To Heal at All, You Have to Feel It All

[Verse 1]
The door closes shut
I hear a noise upstairs but I'm not sure what it was
I creep towards the stairs
A faint and quiet whisper makes its way into my ears
Oh, who could it be?
They beckon for an answer with a clear apology
Do you hold the key?
The ghost, it sounds familiar, even sounds a bit like me

[Chorus]
So young and confused, a life of abuse
I'm the culprit, oh, I am the culprit
You never believed in hope you can't see
I'm the culprit, oh, I am the culprit

[Verse 2]
I run up the stairs
I hear the voice repeat, "This is now your cross to bear"
Thе sound travels through
An image of what could have been, it looks a lot likе you

[Chorus]
So young and confused, a life of abuse
I'm the culprit, oh, I am the culprit
You never believed in hope you can't see
I'm the culprit, oh, I am the culprit
And I can't be your spine anymore
I can't be your spine anymore
Anymore

[Bridge]
Not enough hours of darkness to sleep off the guilt
The room was all finished and painted your name on the quilt
But no one will know it's for you
No one will know it's for you

[Refrain]
So young and confused, a life of abuse
You never believed in hope you can't see

[Chorus]
So young and confused, a life of abuse
I'm the culprit, oh, I am the culprit
You never believed in hope you can't see
I'm the culprit, oh, I am the culprit
And I can't be your spine anymore
Anymore
