"Can't Wish You Well" lyrics

"Can't Wish You Well"

A little pain, a little pleasure
Maybe a rope around my neck to understand you better
A little hope, maybe some pressure
It's like I'm stuck inside your white walls, tied to a stretcher

And it's these little things
Stinging
That I can't put my finger on
Inside, a siren sings and preys upon
What I'm praying on oh
But I've known all along

Something's not right and never will be
The sickness you fight has started infecting me
If you'd see the light, I could set us both free
But the dark in your mind leaves you blind
You are who you are, and I won't follow you to hell
I'll kiss you goodbye because I can't wish you well

A little blood, maybe some violence
And you twist the blade inside my cage
Until there's nothing but silence

And it's these little things
Stinging
That I can't put my finger on
Inside, a siren sings and preys upon
What I'm praying on oh
But I've known all along

Something's not right and never will be
The sickness you fight has started infecting me
If you'd see the light, I could set us both free
But the dark in your mind leaves you blind
You are who you are, and I won't follow you to hell
I'll kiss you goodbye because I can't wish you well

And it's these little things
Stinging
That I can't put my finger on
Inside, a siren sings and preys upon
What I'm praying on oh
But I've known all along

Something's not right and never will be
The sickness you fight has started infecting me
If you'd see the light, I could set us both free
But the dark in your mind leaves you blind
You are who you are, and I won't follow you to hell
I'll kiss you goodbye because I can't wish you well
