Lyrics
Tourniquet
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you give me this battle, I’ll give you the war
I’m tired of being someone’s
I’m tired of keeping score
This tourniquet hasn’t stopped the bleeding yet
If you give me this battle
I’ll pretend like there isn’t a lifetime
Of bitterness inside of me
An ugliness I hide from you
So give me that goddamn bottle
And then leave me alone
This tourniquet hasn’t stopped the bleeding yet
I fear that I might lose a limb
Or a wife
Or whatever’s left inside
This tourniquet hasn’t stopped the bleeding yet
I fear that I might bleed out
