about

"blood baby i think this train is slowing down,
it's coals are cold and smolder up without a sound,"
"and i try so hard to stoke it, but our hope is broken down,
without a doubt, baby this fire is going out."

"blood baby i think this love is losing ground,
it's heavy rust is not enough to hold me down,"
"and i try so hard to clutch it, but your heart keeps wringing
till it's wrung me out, baby you traded me for doubt."

"and i'll keep my word cause you wouldn't"
"and i'm leaving cause you might,"
"and i'll hold my heart cause you couldn't,
but i'll spare you cause you tried,"
"and you shouldn't be so easy,
cause the fault belongs to me,"
"and i'm coughing up my envy
while you're choking on your teeth"

"blood baby i wish my hands were not so bold,
cause i'm not the one who's meant to cut this frozen rope,"
"come on estrange me off from you, cut the losses,
let me fall, let it swallow the walls, but don't you dare to follow."

"and i'll keep my word cause you wouldn't"
"and i'm leaving cause you might,"
"and i'll hold my heart cause you couldn't,
but i'll spare you cause you tried,"
"and you shouldn't be so easy,
cause the fault belongs to me,"
"and i'm coughing up my envy
while you're choking on your teeth"

"now i'm screaming at the window
cause you're staring at the floor,"
"and i'm trying not whisper,
but you're choosing to ignore,"
"and i'm trying to be quiet,
but i'm filling up the room,"
"cause i'm choking on the river,
and it's moving to the moon..."

"I loved you in the only way i knew"
"I loved you in the only way i knew"
