[Verse 1]
Five minutes before it's over
I sit and wait for things to calm down
Is it blood or wine on her shoulder?
Oh, just another night in a broken house
Oh, how I used to pray I was older
So at least I had a chance to save
What went down from five to four
I wish I stood before that door
But instead I chose to hide away

[Pre-Chorus]
I searched for years to find
Some kind of peace of mind
But now I've done my time

[Chorus]
What does it take for you to understand
That all of your problems made me who I am
These scars are still bleeding now, but I'm not mad
With the healing of time a child becomes a man, oh

[Verse 2]
I was born into thinking you were perfect
And that every word you spoke was truth
But now I realize your mistakes
And it will never be the same
But no pressure if you don't came through
[Pre-Chorus]
I searched for years to find
Some kind of peace of mind
But now I've done my time

[Chorus]
What does it take for you to understand
That all of your problems made me who I am
These scars are still bleeding now, but I'm not mad
With the healing of time a child becomes a man
What does it take for you to understand
That all of your problems made me who I am
These scars are still bleeding now, but I'm not mad
With the healing of time a child becomes a man, oh

[Pre-Chorus]
I searched for years to find
Some kind of peace of mind
But now I've done my time

[Chorus]
What does it take for you to understand
That all of your problems made me who I am
These scars are still bleeding now, but I'm not mad
With the healing of time a child becomes a man
Oh, what does it take for you to understand
That all of your problems made me who I am
These scars are still bleeding now, but I'm not mad
With the healing of time a child becomes a man
