Same Blood Songtext
von Tree River

I pace this place
Steps synced to the clock
It′s so small on the wall
But mocks me as I walk

And it's wrong how long
They′ll store you on this floor
With no light in sight
Through the closed hospital door

All I want is for you to say
"Just wait, I'll be okay,
Believe in better days"
What I need more of is time
Plan what I can't define
Just stay alive

But you die, so I cry
When I try to say your name
Bad bruise, tattooed
Now I′ll never be the same


I wanna hold this sorrow close
I wanna feel it breathing
Don′t wanna get to know your ghost
Don't wanna keep on healing

"I know your pain, love
But we are of the same blood
You′re always made of what I once was"

All I want is for you to say
"Just wait, you'll be okay,
I′m never far away"
What I need more of is faith
Something will fill this space
That I create

Trying
My best to break out from hiding
Improve at food and outsiding
And learn to be alone

Writing
At first just feels like I'm fighting
The blurry hurt that I′m mining
That will not be disowned


Flowing
The pages' gauge ever-growing
The sadness suddenly slowing
Inertia nearly gone

Knowing
My wounds won't soon remain showing
My pen performing the sewing
I′m moving up and on

For the moment
I′m finally feeling focused
I'm over their condolence
The future fills my line of sight

So I′m coping
I've heard each word you′ve spoken
I'll dry the eyes you′ve opened
And carry you inside
