You Bleed Love Songs
V1:
If you don't mind me asking,
I'd like you to dig my grave.
So if I die alone, I'm in a home,
That you have made.
Chorus:
You bleed love songs,
I could hear it in your chest.
While my head was resting on it,
I was crying, I'm a mess.
And when I become a mess,
You clean me off the floor.
You'll put your arms around me,
And make me smile like before.
V2:
But if I fall apart,
You'll be waiting with your string.
You'll take your magic needles,
And stitch me up again.
V3:
You know well,
Where I belong.
Until you're back,
This all feels wrong.
V4:
Just give it time,
We'll defeat the space.
Who needs hell,
When you have faith?
Chorus:
You bleed love songs,
I could hear it in your chest.
While my head was resting on it,
I was crying, I'm a mess.
And when I become a mess,
You clean me off the floor.
You'll put your arms around me,
And make me smile like before.
V5:
I'll lock my past into a bottle,
And throw it out to sea.
So I can focus on the present,
And show you how much you mean to me.
V6:
All eyes on you now,
There's no time to be wasted.
You bleed the love songs I wrote,
But you'll never erase them.
V7:
As the days count down,
Until your lips again meet mine,
I'm growing weaker every day,
But I just have to give it time.
Chorus:
You bleed love songs,
I could hear it in your chest.
While my head was resting on it,
I was crying, I'm a mess.
And when I become a mess,
You clean me off the floor.
You'll put your arms around me,
And make me smile like before.
If you don't mind me asking,
I'd like you to dig my grave.
So if I die alone, I'm in a home,
That you have made.
Chorus:
You bleed love songs,
I could hear it in your chest.
While my head was resting on it,
I was crying, I'm a mess.
And when I become a mess,
You clean me off the floor.
You'll put your arms around me,
And make me smile like before.
