"WHERE YOU BELONG" lyrics

Did someone you know ever turn on a dime
From an angel right into a monster?
You still wanna stay, wanna help, wanna heal
Only so much that your love can offer

Why did I try for as long as I did?
Back on the ropes when I knew I should quit
Where do I run? 'Cause I've got no more blood left to bleed

I gotta put you behind me
With all the pain that you caused
I barely made it out fighting
You drained all the life from my love
Sometimes in moments of weakness
I want you back in my arms
But all of the bruises remind me
The past is where you belong

The past is where you belong
Where you belong

You try to protect and you always defend
And even when they got red-handed
But all that you get for your purest intentions
Is your heart wrapped up in a bandage?

How many tears do my eyes have to make?
How many years is it gonna take?
Where do I run so that I make it out in one piece?

I gotta put you behind me
With all the pain that you caused
I barely made it out fighting
You drained all the life from my love
Sometimes in moments of weakness
I want you back in my arms
But all of the bruises remind me
The past is where you belong

The past is where you belong
Where you belong

I gotta put you behind me
With all the pain that you caused
'Cause all of the bruises remind me
The past is where you belong
The past is where you belong
