Perfect Wounds

Maybe this time beneath the burning coal
You'll find the [?
That turns their heart to stone
And we'll do it on again on again
Is it worth it
Are the wounds too perfect
Pick your poison choose it wisely
Sip slow and then invite me
To partake in what's been hurting your soul
Cause I've been yearning to know
Pent up I've been on the verge of exploding
And I don't want the shrapnel to deter you from growth
So I've been working from home
Getting burst in my zone
There's a fortress round this heart of mine
Should I let you in I can't decide
I wonder what really does happen after you die
I'd like to think you just relive
Your favourite parts of your memories
Till your soul is high enough to become part of the sky
Its not easy to share that feeling
And it's harder to try
When you really have to evaluate those parts of your life
That you've been afraid of facing
Stepping into dark from the light
And all that you've experienced from your heart to your eyes
You see it clear now
Like surgery for the partially blind
Because you felt the pain from tribulations laughter can't hide
Whatever happens
You take that as a part of your stride
Accept your fate
And carve your destiny out hard with that knife
That same knife they stabbed your back with made you sharper besides
These things have destroyed kings
And seen disaster run rife
No revenge
I seek redemption and let karma decide
We just patch ourselves up
But then we [?] as we find
