Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
You were breaking like the ground beneath me, burn up like a dream I keep off lightning strikes on summer nights on television Now I needed you to be there to carry me to sleep That night I tripped and broke my rib cage on a bar seat drunk for weeks Chasing ambulances, stumbled to my bedsheets Softly drift off after peaceful things I had once a release down in the streets Now hear it beyond, our footsteps ending at the pond Don't get why you believed in me so much to follow and retrieve it all That sanctity I scattered so indifferently Still you called on me breathe you out, you begged the breeze: "Relieve me from what settles deep and burns down underneath if you believe" My love's like a battered dog, wanders under street signs Subside into nothingness Burns up like a bad dream gone I guess I needed you to freeze me out Those corners of your dreams I think you needed me to bleed out loud I guess I needed you to freeze me up Those corners of your dreams I guess you needed me to leave Still you carried me to sleep, leaving the dream retreats Grasping for an older me, some faded image And it carries you to sleep, breathes out in the fog before me And cat tails hit your knees to sense some soul promise To scatter all their seeds, to grow before they leave For life and all its consequential, complicated scenes They shake you out of sleep Scrape your knees beneath your feet I think we bleed because we need to bleed We bleed because we need I just wanted you to carry on and carry me I guess I wanted you to need the things I needed you to be I just wanted you to carry on and carry for me I guess I wanted you to leave I guess you needed me to bleed Out loud I guess I needed you to freeze me out Those corners of your dreams I guess you needed me to bleed out loud I guess I needed you to freeze me up Those corners of your dreams I guess I needed me to leave Come and shake me from my sleep Burn up in a bad dream like a belief Come and shake me from my sleep Come and help me believe
