Closer to God - Thorns

When we were young

We were told and told

We forced each other

To remain cold

And in a fucked up way

I guess It made me strong

But now I can’t fucking deal

And I don’t belong

I know the old tales and our stubborn ways

And I can promise you I won’t forget those days

But your judging eyes have severed me to the bone

And it makes me think I should remain alone

I just can’t

Open up because we never did

I just can’t

Speak like it’s a normal thing

and now I’ve hidden the warmth from the eyes of you all

And though I cast this shadow like I’m standing tall

I see your eyes fixated on my feet

Waiting for the fall and the death of me

waiting for the death of me

I just can’t

Open up because we never did

I just can’t

Speak like it’s a normal thing

The way we were just locked me up

And I’m closed off now and I don’t give a fuck

I don’t give a fuck.
