lyrics

A broken branch, pots and pans,
My sword and my armor.
Racing in the grass, moving as fast
As my little legs would carry me.
Sliding to a stop, the summer grass
Was wetter than I thought.
A lawnmower blade pierced my armor.
The blood I bleed is real.

But I wouldn’t trade the scar for the world.
The tears were more from fear than hurt.
Make-believe doesn’t bleed,
But it appears I can’t say the same for me.

Show me your scars, naked skin.
Healing starts within.

Praying at the foot of my bed
For some whisper in my head
To tell me it’ll be okay.
I don’t need a burning bush
Or forty days of rain,
Just tell me not to be afraid.
Because the only one scaring me is me,
And the only one stopping me is me.

‘Cause I’m a lost boy fallen from my pram,
Fleeing to a land I don’t yet understand.
Flying, soaring on the wings, the wings of a dream
I may have never had.
I miss my mother’s voice.
You know, I’m only a boy.
I miss my mother’s voice.
But you know, I’m no longer a boy.

“Tell me where it hurts,
Take your pain,
Give it all to me.”
