Rated: 13+ · Lyrics · Relationship · #948699
A song about an abusive boyfriend... that is hard to break away from.
I'm waiting for soft drops of your voice
But your heart ran away, so far ahead
This empty room serves no love to me
But it’d be filled with feelings again
If only you were here
To bring me to my knees

Your eyes say nothing to me
They’re bloodshot and dry
Disappointment in your life
Nearly fried my mind
Your skies just crushed your lonely heart
The foundation your bones branched off is gone
Well, I’ve done it before and I can do it again
I could make you feel all right
If only you weren't my haunting night

[Chorus:]
So go ahead and hit me again
Start screaming if it helps ease your pain
When you tell me not to cry
It doesn’t make my tears run dry

I found a place where I fit in so well
Why did you have to tear me away?
I know you've caved in on yourself
But do you even care about me anyway?
If I turned and walked away
Then what would you say?

I'll be right here beside you
This is almost too much
If I could make your problems dissolve
Would that be enough?
What happened to the man I once knew?
The one I used to look up to?
He disappeared and left his empty shell
Somehow I will make him return
If only you wouldn't let him burn

[Chorus]

Holding hands with uncertainity
Eyes that seem to match the sea
War for love and love for war
Our volatility the source
The strike of your hand
All the things you said
Running, running through my head
I know I should run away
But I can't break these chains

I'm trapped in this vortex
But maybe I can save
You from the dark
Change what happens
And who we are

[Chorus]

Go ahead and hit me again
Start screaming if helps ease your pain
Though we both try not to cry
It doesn't make our tears run dry
