Lyrics
It's a bitter cup, I wish I hadn't tried it, Handed by the hands, I would have dived beside them, Wake up now my heart, the gentle always break here, Closest that I trust, it left the deepest scar, Gave my whole devotion now to every stranger, Fixed my open trust inside my nearest pager, Sharper than a foe was the arrow from a lover, Deeper cuts the blade than nearer that they are, So wake up now my heart, don't give them all your years now, Guard the things you keep from smiling ones and tear eyes, Fought me out a brother, said it to my face there, Turned the day I left, started digging graves, Faces looking clean, all holy and forgiving, Under every mask a hidden knife was living, Yet the wound became the truest cure I carry, Burned me as it came, but left me clearly seen, Fought me out my mind from sweetest deepest dives, Handed to my heart, a sight that's tough to lie, Thank you now my heart, the wound became a crown here, Taught me how to stand well than naive of falling, I am not the boy they planned and formed and guided, Came out of the fire for sharper and decidest.
