lyrics

So you cover up your bruises with
Protection from your thickest skin
You're so tough, you never hurt at all
And like a child, I made my choice
Pretending not to hear your voice
The pounding of my heart drowns out your calm

If I could turn back 13 days
Everything might be okay
And I wouldn't have to face myself like this

So you can't control what others do
And you don't know what I've been through
I know the answers, but still have to ask
Your resolve is iron clad
I'm flailing in between two bads
You can't seem to keep the past the past

If I could turn back 13 days
Everything might be okay
And I wouldn't have to face myself like this
No, not like this

I should have called, I should have come
To your house on that saturday
I've no excuse, I've nothing left to lose
Cause I've nothing without you

Bury my thoughts deep down beneath
Avert your eyes, Smile through my teeth
Bite down on the pain
Until it dissolves
Into my spine
Into my heart
Into my blood

If I could turn back 13 days
Everything might be okay
And I wouldn't have to face myself like this
No, not like this

I should have called, I should have come
To your house on that saturday
I've no excuse, I've nothing left to lose
Cause I've nothing without you
