Broken Skin (Outlines)

(álbum: Topograph - 2016)

Something 'bout this feels safe
Running fingers over broken skin
But it only hurts a little bit
But it only hurts a little bit

Thinking 'bout the year gone
Laughing from a new point of view
Let's forget all the wrong I did

I hide behind the words
Thicker than steel, stronger than a shield
This chariot in the black
As long as we're here, nothing is real

I can only see the morning through my rearview
I'm always driving from the days to come
I can only be your champion for so long
Don't wanna love you just because I'm lonely

I can only wish for everything to settle
Because I'm tired of us just getting by
I can't fit into all of your outlines
Don't wanna love you just because I'm alone

We can never keep this up
Throwing voices back to where they came
You know it wouldn't be the same
Yeah, you know it wouldn't be the same

Thinking 'bout the year gone
I can still recall how it felt
I just can't remember what it was about

I hide behind the words
Thicker than steal, stronger than a shield
This chariot in the black
As long as we're here, nothing is real

I can only see the morning through my rearview
I'm always driving from the days to come
I can only be your champion for so long
Don't wanna love you just because I'm lonely

I can only wish for everything to settle
Because I'm tired of us just getting by
I can't fit into all of your outlines
Don't wanna love you just because I'm alone

The dangers on the outside
We talk it out for a little while
The dangers on the outside
We talk it out for the first time

The dangers on the outside
We talk it out for a little while
The dangers on the outside
We talk it out for the first time

I can only see the morning through my rearview
I'm always driving from the days to come
I can only be your champion for so long
Don't wanna love you just because I'm lonely

I can only wish for everything to settle
Because I'm tired of us just getting by
I can't fit into all of your outlines
Don't wanna love you just because I'm alone
