lyrics

a window with no curtains
a blind i can see through
why would i keep you here?
i want to follow you
don’t you wake up just yet
you better hear me now
the burdens i have left
they weren’t meant for you

there’s something stabbing my side
there’s some blood in my drink
i can not move my fingers
i feel my wishes sink
don’t ever meet me here
i want you far away
it must all be a dream
or unforgiving day

they drain the blood from me
and back to me they serve
they show me all the things
that i once feared the most
no mercy in this seat
i have a crime to pay for
i feel a numbing heat
they took away my mouth

i always had a stiff top lip

it all was up to you
why would you keep me here
i have no more to give you
i’ve dried up and i’m clear
