  • You carry this weight, trying to cover your mistakes
    To make it seem like nothing could ever break you

    But I see right through 'cause I am broken too
    In all the same places as you
    And if you needed proof, I'll reopen my wounds
    Reopen the wounds, yeah

    I see myself in you (in you)
    I know you can make it through

    If you needed proof, I'll reopen my wounds
    In all the right places for you
    So now you see the truth that you are broken too
    I'll reopen my wounds for you

    I keep making the same mistakes, just to feel alive again
    It's the only way to break on through
    So stop numbing all the pain
    'Cause it just won't go away (won't go away)
    If you only knew how much I needed you

    And if you needed proof, I'd reopen my wounds (my wounds)
    In all the right places for you
    I can see the truth (the truth) 'cause I am broken too
    I am broken too, broken just like you Writer/s: Adam Dutkiewicz, Jesse Leach, Joel Stroetzel, Justin Foley, Mike D'Antonio
