| Open Wounds |
| I need some direction to guide my way 'Cause I feel that this isn't how it's supposed to be My hands are stained, can't wash them clean Clutching the knife that's buried deep inside me Is it worth my sacrifice? To just be near you and hear your voice? All emotions in one salty tear Do you even notice? Do you even care? That I'm bleeding I'm bleeding Can't stop the blood from flowing, From these open wounds And I'm dreaming As I'm screaming "What do I really mean to you?" I tried so hard, but it wasn't enough I guess the game of love is much too tough I make you happy, or so you say to me But I don't know what I should believe Is it worth my sacrifice? When you turn away from my martyred eyes Now I hear the lightning and I see the thunder As this grinding wheel pulls me deeper under And I'm bleeding I'm bleeding Can't stop the blood from flowing, From these open wounds And I'm dreaming As I'm screaming "What do I really mean to you?" Now I die a little bit more every single day Knowing that, to you, I'm the path, but not the way Oh, no matter who you're with, when you need me I'll be here to give you strength, When you call my name, I'll run to you But I don't know how much longer I can hide these open wounds When you look at me, do you feel the same things I feel? When you touch me, do you remember the way things were? When you hug me, can you honestly say those feelings aren't there? As the knife cuts another hole.. another hole... another hole in me! The waves, they threaten to drag me under Oh, I'm bleeding I'm bleeding Can't stop the blood from flowing, From these open wounds And I'm dreaming As I'm screaming "What do I really mean to you?" And I'm bleeding As I'm dreaming Always screaming "What do I really mean to you?" And now, I die a little bit more every single day Knowing that, to you, I'm the path, but not the way |
