I carved my name into your ribcage
We talked of lands away from this cage
You said, don’t fret love, someday ill be my own man
I'll be free
Oohhh
Oh but darling did you mean
Darling, did you mean free from me?

You promised home
The kind I've never known
Oh oh-oh
But here we are
Skin and flesh and beating hearts and
I'm wondering what the hell I'm doing wrong
You said
Let's make ourselves our very own brigade
This love our shield, our blade
Oh but darling do you see
The cuts from which I bleed?
It’s me you’ve slain

I didn’t obliterate these walls for you to come and raid my home
And here you are right next to me
Ironically, I've never felt more alone

I fell for you
Faster than I fell apart
And I guess I'm the one to blame
For letting myself fall too hard
I ripped my heart out and put it in your hands
In hope that we’d put up a fight
Mmmmm
How paradoxical, since now all I can think about is
When will we stop trying
Ehhhhh
