All the mistakes that were made In the name of amiability All crucial battles postponed Just to maintain this fragile peace Days drift by like dry wood Nights muffled by loving arms around me Now this is who I am All the mistakes that were made In the name of amiability All the words unspoken Only to add to the void we float in Stand up then sit back down Move on then turn around silently Now this is who I am But the pain in the chest The undying restlessness An arrow that seeks to roam Fever that burns the bones I shall not keep up with The steady pace at which I went from being priority to hobby The tiny hole that fits The emptiness you once hid I will stand up to stand Move on to be a man I will come close to you Pull myself up to you Then I will smother you In kindness and gratitude All the mistakes that were made In the name of amiability All the roads paved Where there should only be wide open fields Now let's lay this burden down Fight for the fragile peace we've found 'Cause this is who I am
