Uncharted Places

I open up and shout
But no one turns around
And it's weird cuz I thought I was loud
He might not look you in the eye
But count yourself lucky if he's there to admire
Cuz I swear it's like a whisper in my ear
You were gone with a flicker and a flash and a fear
Of falling too hard
And breaking my heart
Beginning to start
And mapping uncharted palces
Uncharted places
The bottom of the ocean and the stars and the sand
Will never be explored until you're holding my hand
Love is a trick and life is a race
Inhibition is confusion and peace is a place
How can
You stand on
Broken shards of glass from your own two hands
How can
You stand on
Broken shards of glass from your own two hands
You don't even know
You pack up the show
Hurt me how you will
I know for a fact that you've been trained to kill.
The bottom of the ocean and the stars and the sand
Will never be explored until you're holding my hand
How can
You stand on
Broken shards of glass from your own two hands
Love is a trick and life is a race
Every hand holds a gun and peace is an uncharted place.
