Peace in my body Don’t know how that feels I chase it in the darkness But it never reveals I paint myself a portrait With my lingering eyes   Getting myself entirely lost Every time I disguise Maybe I like it that way Maybe the rush is all for show For being without peace fuels me Something you will never know But that’s what I tell myself That I’m chasing with all my might But deep down inside I know That not catching gives me delight I know that if you give me my peace I will be the one to quit So please give my body a bruise And I’ll remember it

I'll remember it
Peace in my body Don’t know how that feels I chase it in the darkness But it never reveals I paint myself a portrait With my lingering eyes   Getting myself entirely lost Every time I disguise Maybe I like it that way Maybe the rush is all for show For being without peace fuels me Something you will never know But that’s what I tell myself That I’m chasing with all my might But deep down inside I know That not catching gives me delight I know that if you give me my peace I will be the one to quit So please give my body a bruise And I’ll remember it
