Trying to climb out
Your body is a shield
Armored against me
Find out what you really mean

I see you walking in your town
With your head down
You always wore that place
Like a brace
Does it stop you
From breaking?

Annie, why are you still beating yourself up?
It happens all the time
Annie, why have you gone closing all your doors
Before I close mine?

You left a light on
I saw a moth was dead
That summer morning
Find out where you really went

I see you in the kitchen
Making breakfast
Not saying a word as you stir
I come up beside you
Put a hand upon the burn
Annie, why are you still beating yourself up?
It happens all the time
Annie, why have you gone closing all your doors?
I haven’t closed mine
Annie, I’m awake on the other side of the wall
But I cannot hear your mind
