"Blood On The Strings" lyrics

Don't let it bleed out, babe
Don't let it bleed out, babe, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, don't let it bleed out, babe
Don't let it bleed out, babe, ooh-ooh-ooh

If tears could stain
My dresses would have been ruined
If I never came out the ruins
You'd be the hero in my story
Throughout and through in
Blood on the strings
Cause I had to write me a new end
Cause I always ended up losing myself in your shadow
Throughout and through in

Fucking confusing
Don't know even know what I was proving
You were a drug I warned everyone 'bout
And I ended up using
I traded the knife in my back for a pen
To right my wrongs
Dug through the darkest parts of my soul
To write this song

And though I won't be healed today
I'll start today
And may this be the last time I give my heart away in vain

I swept my feelings under rugs for you
Dimmed my light to make you comfortable
You gave me everything
Yeah, everything but the truth

If tears could stain
My dresses would have been ruined
If I never came out the ruins
You'd be the hero in my story
Throughout and through in
Blood on the strings
Cause I had to write me a new end
Cause I always ended up losing myself in your shadow
Throughout and through in

Don't let it bleed out, babe
Don't let it bleed out, babe, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, don't let it bleed out, babe
Don't let it bleed out, babe, ooh-ooh-ooh
