Hurt I Know

(haaa...) (shhh...) The door is unlocked,

the hallway is quiet

We don't need to speak,

we keep to the silent agreement I trace the outline of the

habit we made

(I know, I know)

Step by step into the cold design

Drawing the circle, crossing the line (whispered response: pull me in)

I go back to the hurt I know

Where the dark is warm and the shadows grow Yeah,

I go back

to the hurt I know Because the quiet outside is too cold

No one is innocent,

no one is saved

We built this room from the promises we broke

I wrap the damage around me like a heavy coat

(I know, I know)

I go back to the hurt I know

Where the dark is warm and the shadows grow Yeah,

I go back to the hurt I know Because the quiet outside

is too cold

Almost home...
