Could have run to my arms, but you run to the rocksHow do I heal all these scars after you've taken your shots?And my faith is in my hands and my vice is on my maskI guess God can't understand what I've been trying to ask.And now I'm losing every hand,And somehow I lost my grasp.And my mind's in chains and bands,From memories of our pastI guess God can't understand,What I've been trying to ask.

If I tried to be blind,Through the signs I'd decide.You are real, you are mine,But I ain't blind.I'm ain't trying for you,Baby I resign.And I'm hearing all the chimes,I'll follow til' I find.And if I had a thousand lines,I would leave you a thousand times.And my mind goes through the lines,And memories of your crimes.I ain't trying for you,Baby I resign.
