You would rather see me cry
Than come
The tears in my eyes
Are the life in your lungs
And I still cry for you
'Cause I just want your love
Even though you toss me away when you're done
You would rather see me cry
Than come
The tears in my eyes
Are the life in your lungs
And I still cry for you
'Cause I just want your love
Even though you toss me away when you're done
Why do I bleed for you
On knees you bruised
Somehow I see the life in you
I know someone hurt you too
But that's no excuse
That's no excuse
I knew you were poison but I drank you
Somehow I thought that I'd be immune
I've brought gods to their knees
I thought I could change you
But the signs on the bottle turned out to be true
You would rather see me cry
Than come
The tears in my eyes
Are the life in your lungs
And I still cry for you
'Cause I just want your love
Even though you toss me away when you're done
You would rather see me cry
Than come
The tears in my eyes
Are the life in your lungs
And I still cry for you
'Cause I just want your love
Even though you toss me away when you're done
My body's tired from everything
My jaw is sore, it hurts to talk
My soul is tired from begging you
To see me as a human at all
I knew you were poison but I drank you
I really thought that I'd be immune
I've brought men to their knees
I thought I could change you
But the signs on the bottle turned out to be true
Why did I bleed for you
My knees are bruised
Somehow I saw the life in you
Everything is better without you
I am so much better without you
You would rather have me cry
Than come
The tears in my eyes
Were the life in your lungs
I would still cry for you
If I wanted your love
But my bruises have healed
And I hate you now
You would rather see me cry
Than come
The tears in my eyes
Were the life in your lungs
I would still cry for you
If I wanted your love
But my bruises have healed
And I'm so much better off on my own
