We hang like pictures on the wall
Silent and peaceful, yet so raw
So I'm alone here on the floor
Not sure what I was aiming for
I write you secrets you can keep
Read them out loud when you can't sleep
Oh, sometimes it's lonely
To know there's no one at home
There's two sides inside of me
That wage a war, dichotomy
And there's no side that I can take
Sometimes I just don't have the strength
Withdraw and that's how you attack
I bit the hand, it struck right back
The worst of it, you'd always say
Comes when there's nobody to blame
I can't accept the love I earn
Unless I feel it's on my terms
Oh, sometimes I shiver
Straight through the night
And there's no source of inner heat
That can stop the endless freeze
And there's no fire I can build
There's only valleys, there's no hills
There's two sides inside of me
(Why do you tear yourself in half)
That wage a war, dichotomy
(If love's a pain, then hate's a laugh)
And there's no side that I can take
(And there's a bunker on a hill)
Sometimes I just don't have the strength
(Sometimes in love you have to kill)
