The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
You are the loneliest person that I've ever known We are joined at the surface but nowhere else I look in the glass and stare at your, strained, Grey, motionless face and ask Underneath, is there a golden soul? Take care of the ones that you love Take care of the ones that you love Baby, I'm leaving here You need to be with somebody else I can't stop bleeding here Can you suture my wounds? Everyone is beginning to breathe as I break down You are in love with a shadow that won't come back Sooner or later we all have to wait, Try forgetting everything Underneath, there's a perfect sky Baby, I'm leaving here You need to be with somebody else I can't stop bleeding here Can you suture my wounds and feelings? Baby, I'm leaving here You need to be with somebody else I can't stop bleeding here Can you suture my wounds and feelings? Baby, I'm leaving here You need to be with somebody else I can't stop bleeding here Can you suture my wounds and feelings? Baby, I'm leaving here You need to be with somebody else I can't stop bleeding here Can you suture my wounds?
