Lock up my words
Let them wilt away like cancer in a jar
There's a death in my heart
Something tears me apart each day
And if daylight never comes then I hope you'll at least close my eyes
If I saw you today I would lie just to say I'm fine

I should have known you just a little more somehow
But time ran away along with my smile

If pain is a masterpiece then you are the ink in the pen
I wish I could find a way to fix up the mess I've been
There's a whole lot of grace but not a whole lot in me to go around
If I saw you today I would lie just to say I'm fine
