Convalescence - Trophy Eyes

I know that you’re scared

Doesn’t make you less of a man

Swing hard, fall short

It’s all part of the plan

Brother take my hand and search this face

Look in these eyes, there is no shame

You and I, we are the same

I know you’ve been told differently

But there’s nothing wrong with you that you can’t fix

I understand you

I understand you

It won’t always be like this

We left that place so long ago

But I can’t undo the knots in you

Things are different to the life we once knew

Passion, blind passion

Haunts our sense of direction

You don’t have to carry this on your own

Let me help you let it go

He can’t hurt you anymore

No more sunglasses to school

When you’re told you’re stupid your whole life

You start to think it’s true

Our idea of love is so warped

It barely shines through

All the stupid shit we’ve done

And who we devoted it to

We left that place so long ago

But I can’t undo the knots in you

Things are different to the life we once knew

Passion, blind passion

Haunts our sense of direction

You don’t have to carry this on your own

Let me help you let it go

I know that you’ve been told differently

But there’s nothing wrong with you that you can’t fix

I understand you

I understand you

It won’t always be like this

I understand you

I understand you

It won’t always be like this

I know that you’ve been told differently

But there’s nothing wrong with you that you can’t fix

I understand you

I understand you

It won’t always be like this
