Same Wound

Oh how lonely
Oh how soft
Does your heart turn in the evening
When the lights go off

Gunfire on the TV
Sends the monsters to their death
The orange glow from the streetlight
Like a planet overhead

Tap the circle, reload
Close my eyes for a minute
Breathe out slow
Breathe out slow

Forget the worry
Of life unchanged
After leaving you, baby, the problem remains
Riding high gear on hill climbs
Keeps my legs sore all week
And praying on the way downhill
Don't always turn the lights green

Jesus Christ, please make it true
That one day I'll know I can mean it
When I say "I love you"
I love you

I watch the Cumberland River
Move slow beneath my feet
Reflecting clouds and power lines
Right back at me
Staring at the glassy water
As I walk across the bridge
Wondering what would need to happen
To make me want to jump in

Ease off the dirty
Ease off the obscene
I know I'm just a breathing "what if" machine
The only thing that's the same about me and you
At the end of the day you know we've got the same wound
We've got the same wound.
