LYRICS:

INTRO

VERSE I
We made ourselves a home out of our dreams
Brought with us this love now bittersweet
And maybe I could say now that I always thought of you
How you've run to walk with me your whole life through

PRE-CHORUS
And I know, we go deeper than skin
But what lies within is still deeper than we know

CHORUS I
And for all this pantomime, you should see the state I'm in
I couldn't heal myself with time alone
I have you tattooed on my skin

VERSE II
This house is full of stories we both told
These rooms their very stage where they'd unfold
These walls they whisper secrets and memories thereof
But this door no longer leads us to that love

PRE-CHORUS
Yeah, I know, we go deeper than skin
But what lies within is still deeper than we know

CHORUS II
And for all this pantomime, you should see the state I'm in
I couldn't heal myself with time alone
I have you tattooed on my skin

BRIDGE
All I ever wanted was to hold you
What can I do now to make things new
I ain't trying to write you into a song
'Cause you're too sacred and I would feel wrong
But what irony life holds, I was finally ready to meet you halfway
You turned and walked away

INTERLUDE

CHORUS III
And for all this pantomime, you should see the state I'm in
I couldn't heal myself with time alone
I have you tattooed on my skin

I couldn't heal myself with time alone
I have you tattooed on my skin
