When Words Run Out - Failsafe

You gave me something that had no use

All the empty words and thoughts I somehow still cling to

Will you bear witness now to the scars you’re opening and left by you?

So, is your life one big excuse?

Are the seeds you’ve sewn the one thing keeping you from the truth?

A wise man learns from mistakes that others have made

A fool betrays his own blood

The truth is, you never saw it coming did you, no?

Watch my patience, watch my trust run out

You can’t stop the hurt from all the people you love

This broken tissue leaves not a bruise

For the truth cuts much deeper than a blade sharpened by your news

The hands of time have stolen every bit of my youth

So tell me, what’s left for me to abuse?

When I get my thoughts together

I’ll find all the words to tell you not to come around again

When words run out, you can’t stop the hurt from all the people you love
