A single heart
A single mind won't change
Won't show me anything
Or give me what i deserve
When my grace has come to an end
These battles i've won begin to grow thin
Appearing so poised
Appearing like new
I've walked in these circles for so long
Look again, i am destroyed
From the inside out
Look
You can see my breath
You can sense my callouses heart
I swore i'd prove you wrong
I swore i'd prove you wrong
In only one second i listened for once
In only one second i listened for once
I almost to that place, but i'm so selfish
I almost to that place, but i'm so selfish
It's when the breath fills up your lungs
It's when it's the only thing that keeps me silent
I'm taking this in because for months and months i tasted this
A single heart
A single mind won't change
Won't show me anything
Or give me what i deserve
When my grace has come to an end
These battles i've won begin to grow thin
Appearing so poised
Appearing i'm over this
I look brand new
I'll justify it and leave it that way
These are my moments of i'll dispute
It's when your breath fills up your lungs
I can see your heart and i know your dreaming
You can see my breath and it's the only thing i'll ever know
I'm waiting for you to see that, my callouses heart is all that's left
I need to wake up, this heart needs broken
It's when the breath fills up your lungs "wake up breathe and feel your pulse"
It's when your dreaming "so wake up and feel your pulse"
I can feel your pulse, i am now awake
