Bleed For You

The cold concrete cuts against her back

And her spirit spills with blood onto the pavement

Hands tied so tight behind her neck

And a silence falls, and everything changes

And everything dies, to you nothing's alive, to you anymore

I guess you've gotten more than you might have wanted

If I could take your pain away

I would scream for you

I would bleed for you

So you'll never feel this way

Again when you're in my arms

I would scream for you

I will bleed for you

She drowns herself until the images erase

But the skin is bruised all along her thighs

Nightmares repeat refrain the memories remain

In mental photographs haunting all the time so

She shuts her eyes, to you she tries to hide

From you, she falls asleep into dreams where she is safe

If I could take your pain away

I would scream for you

And I'll bleed for you

So you'll never feel this way

Again when you're in my arms

I would scream for you

I will bleed for you

Put the weight on my shoulders

And the pain in my heart

Tie the knots in my stomach and you'll let it tear me apart.

So tear me apart.

So I could be everything you need

And this silence strips me bare,

and your body pins me down.

I've never been so scared to breathe,

afraid to make a sound.

And all I know is you'll never let me go..

Just kick and scream, bite and bleed,

and make believe it's all a dream.
