idle achiever - battle wounds lyrics

verse 1:
every time i pick myself up
the earth quakes
the ground shakes i fall on my face
i’ve been stuck in this place and now i have to choose
throw up my white flag or find a way to move
but my feet are stuck in wet cement
and i can feel it drying quick
if i don’t get up out this pit, i fear it might be permanent
let’s face the truth
i haven’t given all to you
i still need you to heal these wounds
and i ask myself
how is it fair of me to only give you half my heart
and then pretend like it’s your fault that i am incomplete
cause i’m so bitter and selfish but i want more of you
so i’ll just have to find a way to give you all of me

chorus:
i want you to have all my heart
every open wound
every nasty scar
and if i wind up broken in the process
it’s such a small price to pay
i trade all i am for all you are
these are my battle wounds

verse 2:
battle wounds

from day one i was broken
i was hurt but it was never spoken
i was crushed by my peers
year after year
no one could interpret all of my fears
no one was there for me
i said no one was there for me!
while the world came with ident-ty
convincing me who i should be!
and i believed it
every insult i received it, yeah
and no one said a word to help
nor saw my desperate cry for help
mom and dad you brushed it off like i
wasn’t crying every night
and in my heart increasing spite
loss of trust with every fight

i said i hated you
and though i said it wasn’t true
that lack of trust has followed through
even though i’ve forgiven you!
the colorful scapes that made up my mind, had instantly been turned to gray
and though i said that i’m okay
i haven’t felt loved since that day

when will brokenness subside
cause in brokenness i abide
every battle wound i find, i hide
cause when i look i just can’t help but cry
my bitter heart seems out of place
when i can’t seem to bring forth my grace
it’s been years since i’ve had a taste
of peace in this chaotic sp-ce
