Half Sight Concrete Heart Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She spends her days with shackles strapped to her feet
Locked by your addiction and you've thrown away the key
Yet her face says she has everything she could ever need
She could ever need
Eyes wide and a smile that could change lives
The chains a burden but for her, this is fine
For she knows that in time they'll no longer be by her side
Flea the wreckage from which we can save ourselves
So we can learn and forget then start again
We planted seeds to start a new family tree
So we could learn, forget then start again

[Pre-Chorus]
If there was anything I could do to take the weight off your shoulders
I'd answer all your unheard prayers
Say the word, I'll be there I'll be there
The lights have flickered on her life far too many times but the bulb still shines bright

[Chorus]
Inspired by everything that surrounds me
I'll paint an image of this painful dream, you've had for years but won't dare to believe
I'll carve into your concrete heart the life you always deserved to lead
They'll chip away at the edges but the core will stay the same

[Verse 2]
You buried your own perfections in seeking everything that's right in everybody but yourself
The happy days are few and far between
Held back by his demons for so long, squeezing every last drop of your selflessness
Forever humble and always there, but this could drain your patience dry
