Lyrics

Can't find the words

Expressing difficulty in articulating thoughts or emotions.

In your eyes

Referring to the depth of emotions or unspoken feelings seen in the eyes.

So you sleep in the fields

Choosing to rest or find solace in familiar places associated with emotional experiences.

Where we used to cry

Recalling a shared history of sorrow or pain in the past.


Yet a piece of you still aches

Acknowledging lingering emotional pain within oneself.

With broken bones, embroidered lace

Describing the enduring impact of emotional wounds, metaphorically represented by broken bones and embroidered lace.

But you're still of the age

Affirming that despite the pain, the individual remains connected to a youthful spirit or mindset.

Yet a piece of you still aches

Reiterating the persistence of emotional pain, again using the imagery of broken bones and embroidered lace.

With broken bones, embroidered lace

Reaffirming the idea that despite the pain, there is a connection to a youthful state of being.

But you're still of the age

Emphasizing the endurance of a youthful essence despite the hardships.


Shoulder the pain

Encouraging resilience in the face of emotional suffering.

As you tiptoe the tracks

Navigating through difficulties cautiously, symbolized by tiptoeing on tracks.

Hold onto love

Advising to hold on to love and avoid dwelling on the past.

And never look back

Suggesting the importance of moving forward without looking back.


Yet a piece of you still aches

Reiterating the enduring nature of emotional pain, using the same imagery as before.

With broken bones, embroidered lace

Highlighting the coexistence of pain with a connection to a youthful state of being.

But you're still of the age

Affirming that despite suffering, there is still a link to a youthful mindset.

Yet a piece of you still aches

Repeating the theme of enduring pain while maintaining a connection to youth.

With broken bones, embroidered lace

Reaffirming the idea that despite the pain, there is a connection to a youthful state of being.

But you're still of the age

Emphasizing the endurance of a youthful essence despite the hardships.


When you held me through the nightmares

Recalling a comforting presence during difficult times, likely representing support or love.

I felt so heavy in your arms

Describing a sense of emotional weight experienced while being held.

Then I saw you in a bad dream

Reflecting on encountering a negative scenario involving the person from the past.

It made me wonder where you were

Expressing uncertainty about the whereabouts or emotional state of the person.

'Cause when you held me through the nightmares

Reiterating the comfort felt when being held during difficult moments.

I felt so heavy in your arms

Reaffirming the emotional weight experienced while being held.

When I saw you in that bad dream

Recalling a distressing dream involving the person from the past.

I still felt heavy in my heart

Expressing the enduring emotional impact of the distressing dream.


As old as you are,

Acknowledging the aging process but emphasizing the retention of a youthful spirit.

You're still young

Encouraging a lively and present approach to life despite one's age.

So look alive

Advising to stay vibrant and alert because everyone experiences a youthful phase.

Because we all die young

Recognizing the universal inevitability of death and the transience of youth.
