Five minutes before it's over
I sit and wait for things to calm down
Is it blood or wine on her shoulder?
Oh, just another night in a broken house
Oh, how I used to pray I was older

So at least I had a chance to save
What went down from five to four
I wish I stood before that door
But instead I chose to hide away

I searched for years to find
Some kind of peace of mind
But now I've done my time

What does it take for you to understand
That all of your problems made me who I am
These scars are still bleeding now, but I'm not mad
With the healing of time a child becomes a man, oh

I was born into thinking you were perfect
And that every word you spoke was truth
But now I realize your mistakes
And it will never be the same
But no pressure if you don't came through

I searched for years to find
Some kind of peace of mind
But now I've done my time

What does it take for you to understand
That all of your problems made me who I am
These scars are still bleeding now, but I'm not mad
With the healing of time a child becomes a man

What does it take for you to understand
That all of your problems made me who I am
These scars are still bleeding now, but I'm not mad
With the healing of time a child becomes a man, oh

I searched for years to find
Some kind of peace of mind
But now I've done my time

What does it take for you to understand
That all of your problems made me who I am
These scars are still bleeding now, but I'm not mad
With the healing of time a child becomes a man

Oh, what does it take for you to understand
That all of your problems made me who I am
These scars are still bleeding now, but I'm not mad
With the healing of time a child becomes a man
