[verse 1]
i don’t know what to say to you
i shouldn’t judge, but i often do
when you gonna come back home?
why’d you leave me all alone?

[verse 2]
i cut myself sharp and deep
it’s the only thing that lets me sleep
takes the pain from off my face
and puts it in one tiny space

[chorus]
where i can keep it down out of sight
way off to the side
it won’t come at me on a cold dark night
the red ridges i can’t hide
they’re on the outside

[verse 3]
i don’t know what to say to you
i’m pretty sure you wouldn’t want me to
despite conviction, i still lack proof
as the rain beats down on the motel roof

[verse 4]
and i miss those long hot summer days
when i can keep that beast at bay
long shadows bring it back to life
’til it sees its reflection in a short sharp knife

[chorus]
then i can keep it down out of sight
way off to the side
it won’t come at me on a cold dark night
the red ridges i can’t hide
they’re on the outside

[verse 5]
i remember all my gifts
in the early hours when the panic lifts
thoughts go racin’ ’round and around
and only daylight slows ’em down

[verse 6]
i miss my dog from long ago
where he went, i still don’t know
whiskey and coffee while i burn my toast
and build a cage for all my ghosts

[chorus]
so i can keep ’em down out of sight
way off to the side
they won’t come at me on a cold dark night
the red ridges i can’t hide
they’re on the outside

[outro]
i don’t know what to say to you
i shouldn’t judge but i often do
