There's a cloud above my head
I can't see it but I feel it's raining on me
And my reasons to stay here, they're excuses
I'm just scared of making changes
There's a shadow owning me
And it keeps on following wherever I lead
And it's hiding behind me
And there's no one else knows these scars still go so deep
Shaking off the river looking for the ocean mouth
And the waves that knock me down just as easily can lead me out
Never mind that I'm losing my voice
Never mind that silence is my weapon of choice
All these words I tidied away safe for another day
Tied in knots I'll use them again
They were never mine
They were never mine
Oh, the anchors and the chains
The battles and the bruises
Or the sinners and the saints
The winners and the losers
Who rules, who say's?
Underneath the surface
A stain, a tattoo
And it serves as armour
When I'm shielding my heart from the truth
Never mind that I'm losing my voice
Never mind that silence is my weapon of choice
All these words I tidied away safe for another day
Tied in knots I'll use them again
They were never mine
All these words I tidied away safe for another day
Tied in knots I'll use them again
They were never mine
They were never mine
