And once the pain passes
To be able to open your eyes
And see everything the same
_____
And everything you thought
_____
Things aren't that bad after all
_____
That your heart doesn't hurt anymore
_____
And that this peace from knowing everything passes
_____
Is good for us to hold on tight
_____
Because when the pain comes back
_____
That it's not the good side that goes away
_____
Because for someone who's been hurt
_____
It's easy for a scar to reopen
_____
To live what's not even here yet
And if it hasn't yet, it will
_____
Not always what we think
_____
Is really what's gonna be best
