Lyrics

0:41What have I done
0:46With my heart on the floor
0:52I must be out of my mind
0:58To come back begging for more
1:05But if you stay
1:10If you just stay for the night
1:16Swear that I'm yours
1:22And I'll prove that I'm right
1:40And these flies kept me sleeping
1:46All my fears on their wings
1:52And your grandfather clock is still ticking
1:58But the chime never rings
2:04And how long must I stay
2:10Will I lay by your side
2:16Just to say that I'm yours
2:20And you'll never be mine
2:28With this love like a hole
2:32Swallowed my soul
2:35Dragging me down
2:40And there's blood on the covers
2:44From the curses we uttered
2:47To each other
2:50You played your part in this
3:06Why play hide and go seek
3:12Safe behind your veneer
3:19Does it bury your burden baby
3:25Makes it all dissapear
3:31And those marks on your thighs
3:37Don't they sting when you bleed
3:43It's the way that you are
3:49And the way I'll forever be
3:55With this love like a hole
3:59Swallowed my soul
4:02Dragging me down
4:07And there's blood on the covers
4:10From the curses we uttered
4:14To each other
4:17You played your part
4:22With this love like a hole
4:25Swallowed my soul
4:29Dragging me
4:34And I swear I'll stay with you
4:37But I just can't forgive you
4:41And I'll never be whole again
What have I done
With my heart on the floor
I must be out of my mind
To come back begging for more
But if you stay
If you just stay for the night
Swear that I'm yours
And I'll prove that I'm right
And these flies kept me sleeping
All my fears on their wings
And your grandfather clock is still ticking
But the chime never rings
And how long must I stay
Will I lay by your side
Just to say that I'm yours
And you'll never be mine
With this love like a hole
Swallowed my soul
Dragging me down
And there's blood on the covers
From the curses we uttered
To each other
You played your part in this
Why play hide and go seek
Safe behind your veneer
Does it bury your burden baby
Makes it all dissapear
And those marks on your thighs
Don't they sting when you bleed
It's the way that you are
And the way I'll forever be
With this love like a hole
Swallowed my soul
Dragging me down
And there's blood on the covers
From the curses we uttered
To each other
You played your part
With this love like a hole
Swallowed my soul
Dragging me
And I swear I'll stay with you
But I just can't forgive you
And I'll never be whole again
