You clean your teeth before you bite
Why is it me you have to spite?
I gave in, my flag's white
And suddenly you're so contrite
I used to draw hearts 'round your name
Now I just draw blood to face another day
(Without you by my side to pull my heart)
And you know I'm not one to make a scene
(The bitter taste of kerosene)
But I'd burn alive to see you scream
Pouring salt in my cuts
Tears make up my blood now
Twist the knife in my gut
To break all my trust
I thought the worst was over
Felt you read me like a lover
Star-crossed in a Midwest summer
Torn apart like a paperwork drama
Never thought we'd be so self-serving
Breaking me down to nothing
Pouring salt in my cuts
Tears make up my blood now
Twist the knife in my gut
To break all my trust
You pull the same thing every night
Why do we still have to fight?
I gave up, my flag's white
Just to pretend that we're alright
Pouring salt in my cuts
(Is this what we really want?)
Tears make up my blood now
(I promise it's not my fault)
Twist the knife in my gut
(Didn't think you'd kick me this hard)
To break all my trust
Drained all the blood from my heart
