Daggers Lyrics

Daggers lyrics

I poured my heart out

Into a bottle

I left my life on

The bathroom floor

My will has slipped down

Right to the bottom

I watch my corpse float

Up to your door



I sing my lungs out

Into your silence

I left my light on

Hoping you'd come

My peaceful protest

Crazier violence

I see my heart strings

coming undone



I wrote my words out

Into a letter

I let the page fall

Onto your bed

I want your touch so

It will get better

I want to hear now

Things never said



I let my tears fall

Making me hollow

I squeezed my fear out

Over your walls



I gripped your hand tight

Letting me follow

But my survival

Means nothing at all



I threw my plea down

Into the ocean

I talked the sea down

Numbing my face

I walked the streets down

Slowing my motion

I called your name down

Another race with a bitter taste



And I held my arms out

For you to hold me

Instead you

whispered me daggers



And what you did

Wasn't what you told me

Instead you

whispered me daggers 



And when I call

you never catch me

leaving me staggered



And through it all

you reassured me

and whispered me daggers
