I carved my name into your ribcage We talked a flinch away from this cage You said, don't fret, love, someday I'll be my own man, I'll be free Oh, but darling, did you mean? Darling, did you mean free from me? You promised home The kind I'd never known, oh But here we are, skin and flesh and beating hearts And I'm wondering what the hell I'm doing wrong You said, let's make ourselves our very own brigade This love our shield or our blade Oh, but darling, do you see? The cuts from which I bleed It's me you've slain I didn't obliterate these walls for you to comb away my hair And here you are right next to me Ironically, I've never felt more alone I fell for you faster than I fell apart And I guess I'm the one to blame For letting myself fall too hard I ripped my heart out and put it in your hands In hopes that we'd put up a fight How paradoxical, since now all I can think about Is when will we stop trying, oh How do we stay afloat? When do I let go? All you do is punch at me It's hard to be brave But when the night cuts into the day It's your love I crave I was to thank for lucky strokes Too much, they left me sitting in too much dust Oh, you know all my dreams You were once so insane Now it seems that I love you, but with you It's heartache, I'm breathing you Gave it your all just with everything you took from me Oh, my love Is this the end for us? Maybe we've had enough
