lyrics
How many times shall we sing the same song?
Gums bruised by the swallows, the blood
Your subtle skin dig, I don't feel your pin's prick
Watch you pick parts of me from your nails
How many blows am I required to take?
You blaze trails in a rage, mine confusion
No forgiveness you'll find, in my heart or my mind
I guess I'm just not as you knew
How's it all gonna end?
I'm reminded of how self important the vows
We spoke under threat compromise
Papers sealed and unsigned, we walked through the pines
Towards a future I'd find without you
I sing in my sleep, jagged bottle filled dreams
Salt and vinegar chip cuts line my tongue
But the contract can't bind, I won't love like I'm blind
Ignorance feigned is fine for tonight
How's it all gonna end?
May you live as you've lied
Paper lining your skies
I won't pretend to admire you
Gums bruised by the swallows, the blood
Your subtle skin dig, I don't feel your pin's prick
Watch you pick parts of me from your nails
How many blows am I required to take?
You blaze trails in a rage, mine confusion
No forgiveness you'll find, in my heart or my mind
I guess I'm just not as you knew
How's it all gonna end?
I'm reminded of how self important the vows
We spoke under threat compromise
Papers sealed and unsigned, we walked through the pines
Towards a future I'd find without you
I sing in my sleep, jagged bottle filled dreams
Salt and vinegar chip cuts line my tongue
But the contract can't bind, I won't love like I'm blind
Ignorance feigned is fine for tonight
How's it all gonna end?
May you live as you've lied
Paper lining your skies
I won't pretend to admire you
