Stitches

A violent scream is better than the whisper of sweet nothings
It holds us together and I'll never understand
Why we don't let the flame burn the fan
No I'll never understand
Why we don't let the flame burn the fan

Kindness is where we fail
Don't understand why we're happier to be (content to be)
In discontent, this life is not well spent
Is it better to suffer than to be alone?

So hide your heart and close your mind
And put the key in a dark place that I can't find
And don't forget to lie
'Cause we would rather leave the truth behind
No don't forget to lie
'Cause we would rather leave the truth behind

Kindness is where we fail
Don't understand why we're happier to be (content to be)
In discontent, this life is not well spent
Is it better to suffer than to be alone?

If I treated you like dirt, would you stick to me like mud?
Why is this your idea of love?
And I can't be clean, we've come apart at the seams
Stitches can't fix everything
