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 makes 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 re - written 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 re - written 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 re - written If you could only listen I would tell you this You don't need to be fixed (2x)
