Lyrics[]

I squeeze into a small hole
Through the eyes of needles
To stitch you up again
Even though I know so well
I can't fix anything

I look for blood to shed
Mistaking every vein for thread
Spreading out too thin
As I'm lying in my bed
Barely existing

And I need you
And I need you
To understand
To understand

Sometimes I see light
And I fear it's only fantasy
Oh, wouldn't it be tragic
If there's no light in me
Not any magic

And I need you
To forgive me
If you can
If you can

I know the best I can
Isn't always good enough
It hurts to know I hurt you
Like I know it hurts for you
To know you've hurt me

And now my blood is yours
And life is slowly losing touch
How do you learn to tend to
These invisible wounds
Our homes gave us

I can't heal you
And you can't heal me
Even if we wanted to
And how I wanted to

And I need you to stop needing me
Like I've needed you
We both need to
Tend to the invisible wounds

I squeeze into the small holes
Through the eyes of needles
To stitch you up again
Even though I know so well
I can't fix anything

I look for blood to shed
Mistaking every vein for thread
Spreading out too thin
As I'm lying in my bed
Barely existing

And I need you
And I need you
To understand
To understand

Sometimes I see light
And I fear it's only fantasy
Oh, wouldn't it be tragic
If there's no light in me
Not any magic

And I need you
To forgive me
If you can
If you can

I know the best I can
Isn't always good enough
It hurts to know I hurt you
Like I know it hurts for you
To know you've hurt me
And now my blood is yours
And life is slowly losing touch
How do you learn to tend to
These invisible wounds
Our homes gave us

I can't heal you
And you can't heal me
Even if we wanted to
And how I wanted to
And I need you
To stop needing me
Like I've needed you
We both need to
Tend to the invisible wounds
