I
want you to look at me
Bleeding from the mouth I've learned to die
And cracked my insides to keep things warm for you
And I've learned that love is not something you conquer
Love's a soft white rope and it
binds us at the wrist together Digging burns and twisting tendons
Oh,
you're leaving me awful,
running me down I can't help it with sugar and smoke
But look at these muscles I'm building without
you now I'm building without you now
It took me long enough to figure out That
trust is not a hold but earned in life
And I can't help you if you won't help yourself now
Honey,
yes,
I've learned that love is not something you conquer
Love's a soft white rope and it binds us at the wrist together
Digging burns and twisting tendons Oh,
you're leaving me awful,
running me down
I can't help it with sugar and smoke But
look at these muscles I'm building without
you now I'm building without you now
I can't help it with sugar and smoke But
look at these muscles I'm building without
I'm building without you now
