Hold It Up To the Light

Some things I keep
Close to my chest
Some things I wish I could
Learn to forget
Some people say the
Past should stay dead
Well I'm inclined to
Agree with them

But when you hold it up to the light
When you tally the wrong and the right
It'll stand tested and tried
Fashioned and hallowed

I sent my better self
Back into the heartache
Following a thread of shame
Tethered to my worst mistakes
Well they say love is only pain
A bleed out in the pouring rain
Right now I'm inclined to
Agree with that

But when you hold it up to the light
When you tally the wrong and the right
It'll stand tested and tried
Fashioned and hallowed
But when you hold it up to the light
When you tally the wrong and the right
It'll stand tested and tried
Fashioned and hallowed
