You asked me for my heart
but you didn't have your own
i'm back to where i start
an empty page alone
And i don't want to be the first to call
to show that i still care
cause every time we speak i fall apart
you know you've got me there
But time will make it all feel better
like salve upon a wound you soon won't see
time will erase the scars i've weathered
but as for now it only hurts when i breathe
The pictures once on top
are deeper in the drawer
like promises we swapped
were swept up off the floor
And i don't want to be the one you love
cause no one else is there
i was never good as runner-up
in races that aren't fair
But time will make it all feel better
like salve upon a wound you soon won't see
time will erase the scars i've weathered
but as for now it only hurts
Tarnished as this coin i found
now how am i going to make it through
in the economy of pain
a flowing currency of grace anew
