I've been soother

And i've been wife

Tried to solve your life

Stuck with you through your rainy days

Thought that it was just a phase

When the sun came out i tried

To get away and fly

But the needs we had did not subside

What a way for our love to die

I've been hiding behind my gifts

I give until it starts to rip

The skin is torn where i begin

The thread is worn and might give in

Underneath it all i feel the eyes

Of all the things that i despise

Can i fight them off with sticks and stones?

Can i fight them off alone?

Soothe yourself [x3]

Now i'm thinking about my own advice

If i could soothe myself it might be nice

Callin' names ain't the same no more

Took a look and locked that door

Memories and cold hard facts

Watched it all come rushing back

All the times i told you what to do

All the times i thought i knew

Soothe yourself [x4]

Soothe yourself [x3]
