[Verse 1]
From birth I've known little but pain
Each footfall I’ve put down on this earth
Takes me further from ghosts that I've slain
And what's it been worth?

[Verse 2]
Over mountains and rivers my trail
This beaten path I have beaten alone
Cirlces around to the past witout fail
Ever darker and more overgrown

[Verse 3]
The mountains can’t come between memories
The rivers can't flush away my hurt
And fighting though this thicket that's inside of me
Has left me broken
Down in the dirt

[Chorus]
But one day, our paths chained
And in you I could see the same pain
The same will to forge on in your gaze
But the same beaten path was in your wake

[Verse 4]
Now I can't say the past doesn't hurt
But in some ways I'm starting to mend
It ain't that loving you has changed me, no
I'm just finally going ’round the bend
[Verse 5]
We’ll claw at the world together
We'll reap a clear path when we’re pressed
I know our journey, one day, will end
But now you'll be there when I rest

[Bridge]

[Chorus]
But one day, our paths chained
And in you I could see the same pain
The same will to forge on in your gaze
But the same beaten path...

[Outro]
In your wake
In your wake
