[Verse 1]
You wrote your name in invisible ink
For you were so afraid of what they might think
But the scars they left, they were loud and clear, weren't they?
Weren't they?

[Verse 2]
When it's too much to bear, memories erase
A disappearing act, deserving of our thanks
When it surfaces, just hold your breath and swim
Just swim

[Verse 3]
You begged and begged for some kind of change
Maybe they'd wake up tomorrow and regret the pain
That they've passed down to you like DNA, but no luck
No luck

[Verse 4]
It seems only by the hand of God or death
Will they truly change their silhouettes
For a miracle or a consequence you wait
And wait

[Instrumental]
[Verse 5]
Maybe distance is the only cure
Far away from hurt is where healing occurs
But all you really wanna do is make them proud, don't you?
Don't you?

[Verse 6]
It must be so hard, in the mess you're always cleaning up
To believe in the ghost of unbroken love
But I promise you the truth is that you're loved
So loved
You're loved
So loved
