Been to Hell and back again
Light can turn to dark, don't know who we are
The kind of thing that you can't forget
Burned into your mind till the end of time

Turn the key, turn the tide
Or we'll both go under
Drown each other

Why does trauma bond
Keep us holding on?
Why does trauma bond
What it tears apart?

We've been high and we've been low
Push and then we pull, words so colorful
Anywhere you want to go
Take it to the edge, no matter where it ends

Turn the key, turn the tide
Or we'll both go under
Drown each other

Why does trauma bond
Keep us holding on?
Why does trauma bond
What it tears apart?

Exposing these old wounds
Reopens scar tissue
Subconscious reflexes
Mechanical defenses
There is no relief
From this muscle memory

Why does trauma bond
Keep us holding on?
Why does trauma bond
What it tears apart?
