Song lyrics

We made ourselves a home out of our dreams
Brought with us this love, now bittersweet
And maybe I could say now that I always thought of you
How you've run to walk with me your whole life through

And I know, we go deeper than skin
But what lies within is
Still deeper than we know
And for all this pantomime
You should see the state I'm in
I couldn't heal myself with time alone
I have you tattooed on my skin

This house is full of stories we both told
These rooms, their very stage where they'd unfold
These walls, they whisper secrets and memories thereof
But this door no longer leads us to that love

Yeah I know, we go deeper than skin
But what lies within is
Still deeper than we know
And for all this pantomime
You should see the state I'm in
I couldn't heal myself with time alone
I have you tattooed on my skin

All I ever wanted was to hold you
What can I do now to make things new
I ain't tryin' to write you into a song
Cos you're too sacred and I would feel wrong
But what irony life holds
I was finally ready to meet you half way
You turned and walked away

And for all this pantomime
You should see the state I'm in
I couldn't heal myself with time alone
I have you tattooed on my skin

I couldn't heal myself with time alone
I have you tattooed on my skin

Skin

We made ourselves a home out of our dreams
Brought with us this love, now bittersweet.
And maybe I could say now that I always thought of you
How you've run to walk with me your whole life through.

And I know, we go deeper than skin
But what lies within is
Still deeper than we know.
And for all this pantomime
You should see the state I'm in
I couldn't heal myself with time alone
I have you tattooed on my skin.

This house is full of stories we both told
These rooms, their very stage where they'd unfold
These walls, they whisper secrets and memories thereof
But this door no longer leads us to that love.

Yeah I know, we go deeper than skin
But what lies within is
Still deeper than we know.
And for all this pantomime
You should see the state I'm in
I couldn't heal myself with time alone
I have you tattooed on my skin.

All I ever wanted was to hold you
What can I do now to make things new
I ain't tryin' to write you into a song
Cos you're too sacred and I would feel wrong.
But what irony life holds
I was finally ready to meet you half way
You turned and walked away.

And for all this pantomime
You should see the state I'm in
I couldn't heal myself with time alone
I have you tattooed on my skin.

I couldn't heal myself with time alone
I have you tattooed on my skin.
