lyrics

Twisted tongues and battered lungs
Is all thats left when
You swore that it meant something
And I almost started laughing
At the fact that you would even try
To ever justify
But didn't mother tell you so?
Didn't father let you know?

That its so dangerous
To light a match and walk away
To watch the colors start to change
As it all goes up in flames
You can't just fix this with just one kiss
I'm fucked, and you're fine
So I'll let go

This fire burns inside my chest
Without room to rest
Cause you're just going through the motions
While you toy with my emotions
And I'm sore
Cause every now and then I'll miss you more than my
Words could say

Take a look at the blood inside my veins
Can you see its been poisoned with your name?
Now my head hangs in shame
Take a look at the blood inside my veins
Can you see your name?
Can you see your name?
Now my head hangs in shame

Dangerous
To light a match and walk away
To watch the colors start to change
As it all goes up in flames
You can't just fix this with just one kiss
I'm fucked, and you're fine
So I'll let go
So I'll let go

I guess its not about possession
Or the fact that I'm obsessing with your heart
So I'll, let go
