Verse I:
You got what you wanted
Didn't you?
Don't know where your heart is
But mine's bruised
You knew when you started
That I'd lose
The blood on the carpet
Is not you
Pre-Chorus:
I tried to wash the scars and marks from under my skin
But you're etched in me like stone
Chorus:
You can't save me (yeah, yeah)
You're coming off, until you hate me (yeah, yeah)
Lord I try and I can't say no
You're the pain and the medicine
One taste and I'm numb again
You can't save me (yeah, yeah)
Lord I try and I can't say no
}x3
Verse II:
moth to a candle
That's me to you
I was never this fragile
Or consumed
I'm covered in shrapnel
Through and through
And I wish I knew how to
Hate you
Pre-Chorus:
I tried to wash the scars and marks from under my skin
But you're etched in me like stone
Chorus:
You can't save me (yeah, yeah)
You're coming off, until you hate me (yeah, yeah)
Lord I try and I can't say no
You're the pain and the medicine
One taste and I'm numb again
You can't save me (yeah, yeah)
Lord I try and I can't say no
}x3
Bridge:
You've got your chains wrapped around me so tight
Give me enough just to keep me alive
I try to run but it hurts every time
I try
Lord I try and I can't say no
Lord I try and I can't say no
}x3
You got what you wanted
Didn't you?
