Watching you fade from the sidelines
I'm staring at a person I once knew
Tethered to you by a bloodline
And Dad always said that I got my smile from you
But now you're in a place that I can't follow
And you carved out a space; you left me hollow
And it pays to be a saint
I hope to hell that you'll be there
I've been trying to find the reasons
For the heartache in my chest,
The parts you cut out when you left
I just want to be myself again
Looking for you in the skyline
I find traces of you in the emptiness
And Mom always said there's a timeline
From shedding tears to shedding things I can't forget
And it pays to be a saint
I hope to hell that you'll be there
I've been trying to find the reasons
For the heartache in my chest,
The part you cut out when you left
I just want to be myself again
Be myself, be myself, be myself again
And it pays to be a saint
I hope to hell that you'll be there
I've been trying to find the reasons
For the heartache in my chest,
The part you cut out when you left
I just want to be myself again
Be myself, be myself, be myself again
And it pays to be a saint
I hope to hell that you'll be there
I just want to be myself again
