lyrics

Never thought you would confess
Never thought you would undress
Never thought you'd carry me
Never thought you'd bury me

Never thought you'd recognize me
Never thought you would despise me
Never thought you'd realize
You're causing all the scars

Never thought you would, my friend
Never thought you'd kill the end
Never thought like medicine
Never thought we'd pay to sin

Never thought you'd recognize me
Never thought you would despise me
Never thought you'd realize
You're causing all the scars
The cause of all my scars

Never thought you'd be with me
Never thought you'd leave me be
Never thought you'd love my ways
Never thought you'd pass our days

Never thought you'd go that far
Never thought we'd love the scar
Never thought you'd share this thought
Never thought you'd sell the loft

Never thought you'd recognize me
Never thought you would despise me
Never thought you'd realize
You're causing all the scars
The cause of all my scars

Never thought you would confess
Never thought you would undress
Never thought you'd carry me
Never thought you'd bury me
