When I trample on my destiny
I'm cutting out the best in me
With an unskilled hand and a heavy heart

I'm beating back what blades won't cut
I aint wishin to see better days
Just someone help collect the pain

I was blind but now I surely see
Was deaf but now I began to sing
Oh I can promise you that I can make everything alright

Then we would think on all these years we've kept up this fight

Oh I could scream until my lungs turn blue

Try to change these walls protecting you
But that ice that runs within your veins
Won't see I've changed

Can you say the same

Though the progress may sometimes seem slow

All those bruises make me whole
And I can not for the life of me
Worry bout the life in me

Won't you tell the kids I miss them so
I'm sorry I had to miss so much
Won't apologize for who I am

You're hurting me because you can

And oh I can promise you that I can make everything alright

Then we would think on all these years we've kept up this fight
Oh I could scream until my lungs turn blue
Try to change these walls protecting you

But the ice that runs within your veins
Won't see I've changed


Can you say the same
Can you say the same
Oh can you say the same

Can you say the same
