[Verse 1]
I patch your cracks
With my shaking hands
Blood on the bandage
Dripping through the plans
You say you’re drowning
I dive while I choke
Hold your head above
While my ribs still smoke
[Chorus]
I can carry all your hurt
But I can’t lift mine
Every time I stitch your wounds
I tear along my spine
I feel everything you feel
Till I fade again
I can fill another’s pain
But I’m still in pain
[Verse 2]
You call at midnight
I come, I don’t ask
Pull on my kind face
Like a dead man’s mask
You sleep softer
Once the storm is done
I stare at the ceiling
Burning like the sun
[Chorus]
I can carry all your hurt
But I can’t lift mine
Every time I stitch your wounds
I tear along my spine
I feel everything you feel
Till I fade again
I can fill another’s pain
But I’m still in pain
[Bridge]
Who holds me
When I fall through
Who hears me
When I break for you
(when I break for you)
[Chorus]
I can carry all your hurt
But I can’t lift mine
Every time I stitch your wounds
I tear along my spine
I feel everything you feel
Till I fade again
I can fill another’s pain
But I’m still in pain
Yeah, I’m still in pain
