about

Acoustic track about how, even though we're all damaged in some way, we're not alone.

lyrics

We hide ourselves away
For our own protection
We steel ourselves against
The ache
of staring down our fears

So you hate how you feel
And you wish that
you were numb
Just like everyone else does
You wish the world away
‘Cause you hate feeling wrong
But doesn’t everyone?

We protect ourselves
against the trauma
Locked within ourselves
Deep down
But can’t make it go away

So you hate how you feel
And you wish that you were numb
Just like everyone else does
You wish the world away
‘Cause you hate feeling wrong
But doesn’t everyone?

We hold ourselves
In such low regard
We surprise ourselves
Again
With our capacity for pain

So you hate how you feel
And you wish that you were numb
Just like everyone else does
You wish the world away
‘Cause you hate feeling wrong
But doesn’t everyone?

So you hate how you feel
And you wish that you were numb
Just like everyone else does
You wish the world away
‘Cause you hate feeling wrong
But doesn’t everyone?

Doesn’t everyone?
