lyrics

I was set on loving someone
But followed my heart’s deception
Married myself to the edge of the world
And left it without question

When I was a girl, I would dress up in pearls
I would sing and dance and twirl
Before I grew up, I thought that ‘ould be enough
But I was just a little girl

Told my father and mother that I
Was just feeling a little tired
Walked up the stairs with it hidden inside
I was feeling a little tired

You don’t know what you’ve got
Til you’re missing a lot, like a hole inside your chest
Colored red that’s so stunning, then you’ll be wondering
Why there’s a hole inside your chest

You don’t know what you’re feeling ‘til something goes wrong
You don’t know what you’re leaving ‘til you’re completely on your own
You don’t understand the price you’ll pay for what you have done
Empty holes in hearts and chances missed all because -

Here I lie with my arms at my sides
As tight as the lids of my eyes
My view has grown dark, but my ears are much sharper
To hear my mother cry
