I know you hate when I go to work swinging my hammer
because you've seen me broken, you've seen me damaged
but my body's strong it's my soul that takes the brunt
of the pain I inflict on myself like a hammer to thumb
my favourite part of the day
is telling you I am ok
and seeing the look of relief
cross your face
I know you love coming home to a house that's not empty
so I'd fill each space if I could so you'd never be lonely
but I know you need time alone, to gather your thoughts
so I'll be right here, when you want to talk
my favourite of the night
is just before I turn out the light
and I hear you say 'I love you'
one last time
I know it's hard to give your life so completely
to yourself, let alone somebody
who might be afraid of what you have to show
but your deepest and darkest, I want to know
my favourite part of our life
is knowing is that if the world outside
crashed and burned
we'd be alright
I tried to make my home with you
now I hope with all of my heart that you find some new
I guess our love just faded like those old tattoos
