Surgery
The loneliness hurt more than surgery.
They make a cut with anesthesia,
but nothing numbs a leaving.
The body forgives, the body forgets;
it adapts and carries on.
But nothing heals a heart-wrong.
I will not quit, I will survive,
but I have been marked,
and there's no fading of such scars.
Loss is a tumor
that can't be removed.
Can't you see I will never quit you?
All I can do is drown you out
with layers of new love.
You'll be lost in the darkness soon enough.
I will not quit, I will survive,
but I have been marked,
and there's no fading of such scars.
The loneliness hurt more than surgery.
They make a cut with anesthesia,
but nothing numbs a leaving.
The body forgives, the body forgets;
it adapts and carries on.
But nothing heals a heart-wrong.
I will not quit, I will survive,
but I have been marked,
and there's no fading of such scars.
Loss is a tumor
that can't be removed.
Can't you see I will never quit you?
All I can do is drown you out
with layers of new love.
You'll be lost in the darkness soon enough.
I will not quit, I will survive,
but I have been marked,
and there's no fading of such scars.
