Oh, father friend, will you punish me, punish me With a look of contempt, with a look of contempt I can recall Oh, I know you did right by me, right by me Wagging your hands when you found me With a bag of your things Please, please don't be a stranger here A stranger who takes from the world Who takes from the world You, you must be a Christmas tree, a Christmas tree You light up the room, oh, you light up the room Oh you light up the room So, suddenly you kiss me You tickled me in front of your mother Who looked away With her hands on her face Don't run away my friend You won't be back again You said you needed me But I know that you needed yourself to be cleaned of me Don't run away my friend You won't be back again You said you needed me But I know that you needed yourself to be cleaned of me Don't run away my friend You won't be back again You ran your hands through my hair in the snow Where the frost of it blows with the terrible ghost Don't run away my friend You won't be back again You said you needed me But I know...

No more promises tonight No one is in my line of sight We're trying too hard To keep away scars So bye bye, baby We've come to the end somehow There's too much at stake While our hearts break It's time to say goodbye now Someone will love you more than I will Someone who's better at sacrifice Some peace will come With a more loving one Bye bye, baby We've come to the end somehow There's too much at stake While our hearts ache It's time to say goodbye now We've tried, and we've tried with quiet lying Too much more time and too many knots need untying Bye bye, baby We've come to the end somehow There's too much at stake While our hearts break It's time to say goodbye now

I'm such a mess The other day I hurt myself to see Oh if you care If you believe My cracks in the mirror Oh, I slit my skin 'Til I, I felt something real Cause I was losing Losing my reflection There's a hero In you Inside of you Oh, who resolved the down But I'm asking why I'm still here Standing in the rain Did I fail you dear Like painless suicide You burried the creed Beneath blood-red roses Had life life had just begun I knew nothing could stay the same But feeling, can feeling last Forever There's a hero In you Inside of you Oh, who resolved the down But I'm asking why I'm still here Standing in the rain They said there's a hero In you, who'd flied with fears Who could set you free From death From the world In a world you've been left alone There's a hero In you Inside of you Oh, who resolved the down But I'm asking why I'm still here All by myself Feeling the touch of red From my skin

I'm holding out my heart in my trembling hands I'm holding out my heart, so I'll understand It's home is on my sleeve most days It's home is on my sleeve, right here for you to take Hey, I'm black and blue, black and blue I'm falling through the cracks, So I'm turning back and I'm not coming for you Your words, they're in my mouth, a puppet's muse Your words, they're in my mouth, someone else's news A voice inside me shakes to tell the truth A voice inside me shakes to tell the truth Hey, I'm black and blue, black and blue I"m falling through the cracks, So I'm turning back, I'm black and blue, black and blue I'm falling through the cracks, So I'm turning back and I'm not coming for you
