Stain my body red, and open up my chest. Leave nothing untouched, cause I know you know best.
Self-mutilate with a straight face, and all down your back I can see where you come apart. But I can't piece it back together no, it's too hard.
I'm sorry your daddy saw. And for the fact that I don't care at all. I've got my own things to tend to can you see?
You wore your heart, right on your sleeve, and forced me to not believe. That I share my skin with someone else, and I lost myself.

Saving Face

When you talk, I can read your lips. Feel emotion flowing from your fingertips, and I'm sure that I'm the only one around here who feels that way.
Take your time, when you plant a lie. Cause those seeds can be diseased, and don't always grow the way that you want them to.
Don't stop now you've nearly turned it back around. And I feel like shit, for saying words that I thought I'd never miss.
Please help me, help me find myself. I'm crawling out of my skin.
Hard floor on my soft bones, the breeze avoids the windows, trying hard to be grown, and nothing left alone. A fire in his own home, he's trying hard to be grown, fighting with his own ghosts, and nothing left alone.

You're always saving face, and drifting further out of grace. But in the mornings you're the same. I never really meant to be the one that told you everything, but I guess that's just what I get.
It's sad that I feel sorry and that I know you'll never change. A chance I never plan to take. I never wanted honesty, just for you to tell me where you are.
If you're broken, then fix it, don't try to push it off on someone else. That's not how you grow. If you lost it, and you're wishing, you could get it back no questions asked, well I guess I wouldn't know.
Trust me, I'll be the first to let you sink.
But your son's got it all wrong, fire in his own home, and nothing left alone.

No voice to speak through, no eyes to see you. I feel like I should fade away, if nothing short of an escape.
And now I'm washing off, finding scars that I forgot. Nothing goes away with time, and I never said that I was fine.
I hope that no one ever gets to see, what I hide between the walls and under sheets. In your own home, you're not welcome anymore, so why did you trade your head for a bad dream?
Can I find where you reside?

Tried to hide how I was feeling that night, but I could only hold it back for so long. Tried to talk to you, tried to talk to you. Why won't you talk to me, talk to me, do you hate me?
On and on about the same damn thing, I wish I knew what you were talking about. Something about how I don't consider your feelings, and it's my fault when you feel left out, but I don't see how.
I whisper softly to myself, about what I said and how you felt. I always have this one dream about you, but it's never coming true.
It's never meant to be like you're not here and I'm sorry.

Infiltrate (Acoustic)

How long must we wait, for the images to fade away? Try to make this better with this, and infiltrate the walls of my mind.
Anger, it eats away, spreading out like disease. And now we are both driven that way, and there's nothing left to say. i saw my sister give up on her dreams, and loving a hollow family.
How did you infiltrate me? Well it was easy. Thinking has become my disease. I won't let this take over me. Twenty years of being afraid have done nothing for me. I don't want this life just take it from me.
