On My Heels Lyrics by BASECAMP

In Stone

2016

I wish I would've said it
Just cleared the air
I was so scared to break you
But too blind to care
I painted me wiser
And covered my eyes

Shrouded in shame

Proud of my pain

Layered with lies
The tears that dried and stained our skin
The cracks that grew and spread us thin
The pace at which I run from it
The memories I can't stomach
The harm that I've done
The shell I've become
The beast that stays on my heels
Reminder that's all too real
Of harm that I've done
Of what I've become
This wasn't what I wanted
Or what you deserved
And I was so sure I could fix it
Before you returned

But with bricks and mortar

We sealed our borders off
The tears that dried and stained our skin
The empty room where love had been
The pace at which I run from it
The memories I can't stomach
The harm that I've done
The shell I've become
The beast that stays on my heels
Reminder that's all too real
Of harm that I've done
Of what I've become
_________________________________________
Sunken and slow
You turn your eyes away from me
You're moving off
It's all wrong
No It's all wrong
Sunken and slow
You turn your eyes away from here
Fought for so long
It's all wrong
No it's all wrong
