If You Never Heal

these things I know
are reflections of myself
and you can't call
couldn't do that to yourself
they say I'll never heal
they say I'll never feel again
and I believe them
I believe them

you're waiting for your ship to come in
like searching for the star you already watched fall
these things don't happen twice

and if you never heal
if you never feel again
I won't place the blame on you
I will take the shame my friend

these things I know
will never speak a sound
this silent promise
will be our only common ground

and if you never heal
if you never feel again
I won't place the blame on you
I will take the shame my friend
