Love Took The Last Of It

I think I knew it from the start

Eventually everything would fall apart

You believed in the stars

You never thought the lights would guide you back to where you are

I lost my flame and so I told you what you want

Talked my way into a place where I felt safer I thought

I never meant to cause you any harm

I just wanted to speak it

So maybe I’d believe it

Build the blame and lay it at my feet

I’d break my fingers just to point them all at me

It’s my fault

Spread the salt and I’ll be gone but

The wounds are left to bleed

And I can fill the space but never find my peace

You take your aim and take the better parts of me

And it was never really right, Your hand in mine

But at the time it’s what I needed for a stable mind

Kept my secrets and I covered them in lies

Had my reasons and I made sure they were staying disguised

I was bleeding cause they cut me like a knife

Your heart was always beating

But I wasn’t meant to keep it

Build the blame and lay it at my feet

I’d break my fingers just to point them all at me

It’s my fault

Spread the salt and I’ll be gone but

The wounds are left to bleed

And I can fill the space but never find my peace

You take your aim and take the better parts of me

It’s my fault

Spread the salt and I’ll be gone but

The wounds are left to bleed

Now we’re both left with an emptiness

All alone with no good left to give

Love took the last of it

Sometimes I wonder if I’m meant for this

Will I ever have enough to give?

Love took the last of it

And now I’m cold and stiff

Build the blame and lay it at my feet

I’d break my fingers just to point them all at me

It’s my fault

Spread the salt and I’ll be gone but

The wounds are left to bleed

And I can fill the space but never find my peace

You take your aim and take the better parts of me

It’s my fault

Spread the salt and I’ll be gone but

The wounds are left to bleed

No good left to give

No good left to give

Love took the last of it
