Even though it’s been many years
The wound is still open, crying blood tears
Trying and trying and trying to forget
All of those years staying so silent, oh the fear and the regret
Crying behind many closed doors
Screaming in anger
Feeling breathless, climbing up to those empty floors
The road to nowhere, dead end street
Trying to turn around and just walk away
Sewing up my emotions, swallowing my pride, breaking the silence that I’ve hid inside
Little did I know this journey would create something beautiful out of this past nightmare I had lived
For many years I hurt myself and wanted to fall off the grid
But there you were, standing in the wings
Waiting for the right time to swoop in and heal this fragile thing
You mended my heart, put the pieces back together
For you, I am thankful, always and forever
Life can be hard, but I feel that in my chest
It’s a beating heart, nevertheless
You will encounter hurt, love and despair
But you’ve always got someone who will always be there
Even though it’s been many years
The wound is still open, crying blood tears
Trying and trying and trying to forget
All of those years staying so silent, oh the fear and the regret
Ever so often, the blood drips slow
Like an iv in my arm, giving me life again, ya know
Your the medicine I longed to have, you’ve given me life, when I was down and sad
The life I live, is more then I could have ask for
I have you to thank, for you asking me to be your girl
Even though it’s been many years
The wound is still open, crying blood tears
Trying and trying and trying to forget
All of those years staying so silent, oh the fear and the regret
The wound is basically healed, because of you
Thank for you stopping my world, breaking my silence, making my heart love and beat faster
All because of YOU
