Cauterize
Verse 1:
You've got it worked out somehow this is unhealthy
No don't you tell me this isn't a thrill for you
Cut out the guilt-trip and take this vacation
Bleached-white sun underneath your feet
Sweet breeze you will find when you
Rise from the deep-sun peace
Sun-burning through ash and anxiety
When you learn to be
Chorus 1:
Be
To cauterize the wound you've got to brave the heat
Be
All the things you've got are all the things that you need
Verse 2:
I've got to wonder sometimes if I'm at a loss for words
I lose attention before I've even reached the end
Each time I blunder and get a bit tongue-tied I seem so absurd
When will I know if what I say and do leads to something I can't comprehend
I need to learn to
Chorus 2:
Be
To cauterize the wound you've got to brave the heat
Be
All the things you've got are all the things that you need
Bridge:
The bleeding just won't stop (why don't you cauterize the wound)
I wish I could just drop (soon you'll be high above the moon)
I know I know it's hard
It would be simple if I thought less
Fought less
Brought less baggage to the table
But am I able to just
Chorus 3:
Be
To cauterize the wound you've got to brave the heat
Be
All the things you've got are all the things that you need
Chorus 4:
Be
To cauterize the wound you've got to brave the heat
Be
All the things you've got are all the things that you need
