ISLAND (feat. Storefront Church)

I was an island out in the sun
Falling to pieces for everyone
Pieces of me, pieces I found
Give me a reason to stick around

And all the light I thought I had but never did
I was only lying to myself
Forgive us for ruining the good days

Running in circles on broken bones
Too far removed to carry you home
Gave no example, watching you grow
How can you teach them what you don't know
I made you in the confidence of reckless youth
Now it's too late to do it all again
Forgive us for ruining the good days

And suddenly I see it
The camouflage of blinding self-belief
I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired
Of never seeing anything beneath

I was an island under the sun
Nobody saw me coming undone
But you were stronger, stronger by far
You give an example, you outgrew my heart
And in between my fractured dreams, I wonder why
And where you got the dignity to try
To forgive me for ruining the good days
The good days
The good days
