Save Me Lyrics

I never asked you so you never told me
That's the way that it's always played out
It may be pride, we're a stubborn family
We run a mile from the threat of emotion
I know you love me but the words are frozen
You think it's given but you've always taken
And you're too busy with the imminent dying
To even notice there's a life needs living
Don't close your book yet
Don't choose your stone yet
I think about you when the nights get colder
Or with the passing of a distant ship
I often see you in the bathroom mirror
Lines mark battles on your sallow skin
We used to fight in the war of brothers
When I was seven, I would kick down your door
But now I'm older, there's a weight on my shoulders
I carry my conscience like never before
