"Stitches" lyrics

"Stitches"

The writing's on the wall we don't pay attention
Watch it all go wrong then we start confessing
You got a lot of nerve trying to reconnect it
Nothing can fix this
Ripping out stitches

This is something not worth saving
Make a list of everything you hate me for
Call me bitter
Call me weak
You keep sharpening your teeth
Now you're smiling in your sleep
I'm bleeding out

The writing's on the wall we don't pay attention
Watch it all go wrong then we start confessing
You got a lot of nerve trying to reconnect it
Nothing can fix this
Ripping out stitches

Did you think we'd make it out alive?
Every promise was a pocket knife
This is fucking hopeless
Everybody knows it
Sick of wasting time on a cut that's never closing
Ripping out stitches
Ripping out stitches

Fake smiles and artificial goodbyes
We'd need a mile to lay out all the lies
You're possessive I'm a chore
We can't do this anymore
Skeletons in every closet on every floor

The writing's on the wall we don't pay attention
Watch it all go wrong

Did you think we'd make it out alive?
Every promise was a pocket knife
This is fucking hopeless
Everybody knows it
Sick of wasting time on a cut that's never closing

You know I can't keep a secret
I just wear it on my sleeve
Caught red-handed now you're saying
Never meant a thing to me
Didn't mean a thing to me

Did you think we'd make it out alive?
Every promise was a pocket knife
This is fucking hopeless
Everybody knows it
Sick of wasting time on a cut that's never closing
Ripping out stitches
Ripping out stitches
We can't do this anymore
