ON MY HONOR lyrics : "I Never Deserve The Things I Need"

I want to live by the ocean
At least near water of some kind
To keep me cool in the warmer months

When winter hits, providing something solid in my life
I'm not breaking any ice
Thin limbs are reaching out too far

They won't be getting any better
A bitter man's mind
Equipped with

Childlike arms



These branches are retracting
Curling in on me
Holding on as long as possible to every leaf

Pleading with the earth and sun
Until I fall, they'll all stay safe
In my shade's reach



But they're blowing away

The colorful parts of me
The purpose I serve
Piece by piece

Falling off of me



A cleansing, by fire
Burnt down in private
No one can ever see

I never, I never deserve the things I need



I sought the role of an open book
Lent too many times
Thrown in bags, floorboards of cars

Critiqued by too many minds
Highlighted and dog-eared
To no convenience of mine



A cleansing, by fire

Burnt down in private
No one can ever see
I never, I never deserve the things I need



As much as it pains me

I need you to know You're what I carry with me
Every time I go
Despite every nightmare

Clawing at my soul
I count it a privilege
Just to watch you grow



No rest for the strong

If that's how you're perceived
Too close, too close
You're too close to me

It's what I craved and cried for
I never deserve the things I need
I want to live by the ocean

At least near water of some kind
