heron bones terrible paradox şarkı sözleri
Sometimes I think I should have been just like my brother
Always listened to mother
When she said you put your hands in the fire, it'll tattoo your palms
But I kind of like the patterns that have left up my arms
Now the bandages on my skin
Are an effective reminder
Of what a fool I've been
What a terrible paradox to think of lessons learned at such a heavy cost
That you wouldn't even change the past if you could go back in time
These scars may not be pretty, but they're mine
Some are ugly
And others embarrassing
But every one of them
Taught me a lesson
Like if you step off that ledge it's a thousand feet to the ground
But I kind of like the feeling of the wind on the way down
Now the bruises and broken limbs
Are an effective reminder
Of what a fool I've been
What a terrible paradox to think of
Lessons learned at such a heavy cost
That you wouldn't even change the past
If you could go back in time
Maybe these scars may not be pretty
But they're mine
