Lyrics
Now you’re gone
Now its quiet
Now I can’t try and fight it
Let it come
Let it spread
Let it out of my head
I welcome the pain
Welcome the pain
No one can feel
These steel blades in my chest
No one can say
What is best
Time heals
But time also steals
And I’ve lost
But I will heal
I welcome the pain
Welcome the pain
Waving a white flag now
There’s no escaping it
Cannot run or hide
Don’t matter who you’re with
Push my way thru
To get to the other side
Charging uphill I can feel the wind give me chills
Let it all come out now
Let it all come out
