The Wounded One Lyrics

As the sands of time fall slipping through my fingers
I wonder why as if I'd find the answer
Is nothing real? Does it really matter?
I wish it'd end so I can find what lies after

Sometimes you gotta let it go
If you wanna move on and grow
I know it's so hard to heal
Shut it all off so you don't feel
Alone, I am the wounded one

Life is pain. At least that's what they all say
And my refrain is pain is all I feel
But I am more than that one emotion
No more pain. I need retribution

Sometimes you gotta let it go
If you wanna move on and grow
I know it's so hard to heal
Shut it all off so you don't feel
Alone, I am the wounded one

No more rage. No vitriol or venom
Don't wanna be...don't wanna be the victim
I try to scream but I just can't make a sound
Life is cruel. It kicks you when you are down

Sometimes you gotta let it go
If you wanna move on and grow
I know it's so hard to heal
Shut it all off so you don't feel
Alone, I am the wounded one
