Rewritten

I can tell you've lived by the marks on your skin

These are like the pages of a book

The lines beside your eyes let me know that you have smiled

A little more than I ever could

And I know that you can't sleep at night

For the hollow bumps beneath your eyes

Tell me more than stories ever could

You are not an etch-a-sketch

These marks engraved upon your flesh

Are indeed what make me love you

And I want to

Read you like a book so

Let me take a look inside

Your little head

'Cause you don't need to be rewritten

If you could only listen

I would tell you this

You don't need to be fixed

One thing that I know

When a heart is always closed

No-one can get in

They just get out

So here I am stuck in between

Won't you hold me close and see

I will heal you if you show me how

And I want to

Read you like a book so

Let me take a look inside

Your little head

'Cause you don't need to be rewritten

If you could only listen

I would tell you this

You don't need to be fixed

And I wish you would notice

I would never let you go (never let you go)

And I wish I could show you

It's okay to take it slow

Read you like a book so

Let me take a look inside

Your little head

'Cause you don't need to be rewritten

Read you like a book so

Let me take a look inside

Your little head

'Cause you don't need to be rewritten

If you could only listen

I would tell you this

You don't need to be fixed
