Lyrics

Here you are again
You scaled the wall last night
I finally let my guard down
And you spared no single room
Every memory stripped and strewn
Even those long after you
Climbed back over and you left me all to ruin
And when I find the strength to rise
I will find the strength to lie
About this thing i've always known
You're in me, you're in me
To the marrow of my bone

Who lies woundless in the wake of love
Who comes through without their life half shed
But time, she knows her needle well
And while the stitch is keenly felt
There comes the day
You don't remember that you bled
But as for me, no mark remains
A wound by one who knows his blade
Too deep for any suture sewn
You're in me, you're in me
To the marrow of my bone

I try to tear these memories from me
But I find they're now a part that makes me whole
You'd just as easily cleave breath from life
Or take a heart and leave a soul

You're in me, you're in me
To the marrow of my bone
