Don't you get tired
of fighting yourself?
You know that
I hate to see
You hurt yourself so
If I could bear
a single grain
you know that I would
It's not fair
to keep your pain
all to yourself
Doctor, doctor, heal my wounds
I know they'd open just as soon
There ain't no cure
There ain't no help
If you're so set
Killing yourself
OPEN YOUR EYES
AND SEE THE MAD BLOOM
BE LIKE A BUTTERFLY
AND UNSEAL YOUR TOMB
THERE AIN'T NOTHING
YOU DONE YOURSELF
THAT YOU CAN'T UNDO
FIND YOUR STRENGTH
CAN'T YOU HEAR
I'M STILL PROUD OF YOU
I see the marks on you
They don't know what they've done
It's the little things that leave a trace
On my fair Verdun
Don't you give in!
That's the cowards way out.
What do I / Have to say / You know I hate to shout.
Doctor, doctor, heal my wounds
I know they'd open just as soon
There ain't no cure
There ain't no help
If you're so set
Killing yourself
OPEN YOUR EYES
AND SEE THE MAD BLOOM
BE LIKE A BUTTERFLY
AND UNSEAL YOUR TOMB
THERE AIN'T NOTHING
YOU DONE YOURSELF
THAT YOU CAN'T UNDO
FIND YOUR STRENGTH
CAN'T YOU HEAR
I'M STILL PROUD OF YOU?
Don't you get tired!
Of fighting yourself!
You know that / I'll be here / Right beside you!
If I could bear
one single grain
you know that I would
You don't have
to keep your pain
all to yourself
Doctor, doctor, heal my wounds
I knew they'd open just as soon
There ain't no cure
There ain't no help
If you're still set
Killing yourself
Killing Yourself
KILLING YOURSELF
OPEN YOUR EYES
I'M BEGGING YOU
BE LIKE THE BUTTERFLY
AND UNSEAL YOUR TOMB
THERE AIN'T NOTHING
YOU DONE YOURSELF
THAT WE CAN'T UNDO
FIND YOUR STRENGTH
CAN'T YOU HEAR
I'M STILL PROUD OF YOU
I'M STILL PROUD OF YOU
I'M STILL PROUD OF YOU
(forget the days
forget their fangs
leave it all behind
finally
i can see
right into your eyes)
