It's not the way it cuts
But the way it bleeds
It's not the love you lost
But the love you need
Find a way, the words to say
To blanket the breach
The cathedral burned, we learned
Admire the ruins in the wake
There's a hole in my heart
I'll cauterize it dark
When I'm through with the war
I'll be a stray at your door
Crumbling home, falling snow
Moonlight glow
An ex-lover, old
In the aisle of the grocery store
Car ride daydream
A quick kiss on the cheek
A light in the eye, a disguise
Both worn no more
There's a hole in my heart
I'll cauterize it dark
When this war is all done
I can be your only one
There's a hole in my heart
I'll cauterize it dark
There's a hole in my heart
I'll cauterize-
