[Verse 1]
You touch my arm, I flinch
Like smoke in a cracked-up frame
I smile for your good side
But my chest still knows that name
[Verse 2]
These walls keep every bruise
Like a secret in the grain
I fold my hands at midnight
Still I bleed in the same old place
[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to leave it there
Tried to lock it in the dark
But every quiet morning
Finds the same cut in my heart
[Chorus]
These wounds, they won't heal
These wounds, they won't heal
I keep my eyes on you
But I break in the reveal
These wounds, they won't heal
These wounds, they won't heal
Say my name real soft
Like you can make me feel
[Verse 3]
Your coat hangs by the door
Like a ghost that pays the rent
I walk around the silence
Acting like I meant what I meant
[Pre-Chorus]
But I still hear the glass
When you left me in the rain
And I still taste the sorrow
On the back of my own name
[Chorus]
These wounds, they won't heal
These wounds, they won't heal
I keep my eyes on you
But I break in the reveal
These wounds, they won't heal
These wounds, they won't heal
Say my name real soft
Like you can make me feel
[Bridge]
If I float, let me float
Past the hurt and the smoke
If I fall, let me fall
Where your shadow can't go
I'm not asking for forever
I'm just asking for release
Hold me like a tremor
Then let me drift in peace
[Final Chorus]
These wounds, they won't heal
These wounds, they won't heal
I keep my eyes on you
But I break in the reveal
These wounds, they won't heal
These wounds, they won't heal
Say my name real soft
Like you can make me feel
(These wounds, they won't heal)
(These wounds, they won't heal)
