Every time the blood drips from my fingertips the smile can finally
spread to me

Every time the blood runs down across my eye I can finally see you for
...

I have, I have you breathing down my neck, breathing down my neck
I don't, don't know what you could possibly expect under this condition so
I'll wait, I'll wait for the ambulance to come, ambulance to come
Pick us up off the floor what did you possibily expect under this condition so
...

Even the one night when you were so close and yet i missed you
even though you were so close yet even still i mised you all the
same and we sleep apart
Even the one night when you were so close that so little seperated
...

gotta run gotta go
can't stay while you run away
i know you never stay
but still i'll chase you
...

the whithered flower will need so much attention just to get back on track with the rest of this field it lives in
but no one has that kind of patients to let it grow
forever stunded never growing
just weight down with the guilt of others
...

just break my wings and take my heart
they dont matter without the sky above
they don't matter with being so cold
...

with soft white feathers you fly away taking all that is light slowly leaving
feeling your soft wings brush against us and your soft skin as you leave
never wanting to let go and still you flew away leaving us
leaving us here in the darkness and rough patch work that is life
...

You the rose whose blossum has yet to come
Yet still you could not blossum from the hate of your past
But still you easily outshine even the most beautiful rose
But even so the people don't care they will always run after
...

For you just to have you in me arms just for one last second
You could have all my blood it doesn't matter not without you

For you just to feel your touch even if i can't hold you even once
...

You left me here without any blood.

You took all the oxygen away from my lungs and left, but here I still lay going through the colors.
