Blood On Your Hands - Jeffrey Handley

You said you'd always want me You told me to wait for you Now I'm haunted Our lips became liars now, the liars twist the truth Followed the rules for the games we've been playing My love let you break them, my wasted fool Danced for your fingers, the marks you left linger I cut my own strings just to give 'em to you, whoa I fall down for you I really should know better babe, you'd never save me I fall down for you How could I know your touch would break me? We're gon' crazy now If I must die for you I'll make sure they find you with blood on your hands You'll join me in death, oh baby Shoot me where I stand I loaded up the gun If you love me baby, you'll prove it and run All your cards on the table (cards on the table) Without you playing, my bullets ain't fun Followed the rules for the games we've been playing My love let you break them, my wasted fool Danced for your fingers, the marks you left linger I cut my own strings just to give 'em to you, whoa I fall down for you I really should know better babe, you'd never save me I fall down for you How could I know your touch would break me? We're gon' crazy now If I must die for you I'll make sure they find you with blood on your hands You'll join me in death, oh baby Shoot me where I stand I fall down for you I really should know better, babe I really should know better, babe

Took a lonely feeling just to let them in, and sink like the sun goes down Never close to heaven Feel my feet were burning from the cigarette on the ground There's blood on my hands, there's blood on my hands Yeah, there's blood It's getting hard to listen when the clock is ticking Counting down the days gone by Praying for an answer to another question that will leave you dry You won't understand, with your head in the sand No, you won't But I'll curse the ground where you kneel Till I grow my hair to my heels Spike your water, your wine While you waste my precious time Every time I drink, and try to stop my thinking About the things I said and done Stop the world from turning faster Then I'm learning not to just hide, and run You won't understand, with your head in the sand No, you won't, yeah Love came, and went faster than a penny's bend in this hot machine Nowhere near the devil just somewhere in between you, and me Sworn to secrecy And I'll curse the ground where you kneel Till I grow my hair to my heels Spike your water, your wine There's blood on my hands, there's blood on my hands There's blood on my hands, there's blood on my hands Yeah, there's blood There's blood on my hands, yeah, there's blood Took a lonely feeling just to let them in, and sink like the sun goes down Never close to heaven, feel my feet were burning from the cigarette on the ground

There is no olive branch There is no understanding When did the world wrong you? Oh, did you move right past it? I'm no monster No hidden ghost I'm the one you once loved the most Nobody's fool You're not dumb I won't be treated like your forgotten son anymore You make me feel like a fool I heard you do it all the time I wasn't getting to know ya I just wanna show ya You're a waste of my time Call up another one One more late night out But let 'em know ahead of time Just what you're all about You're a carnivore Full of thirst Renaissance painter With no self worth Always staying Passing through One more horizon, You got blood on your tooth You have blood on your tooth You make me feel like a fool I heard you do it all the time I wasn't getting to know ya I just wanna show ya You're a waste of my time You are a waste of my time Call up another one Call up another one Call up another one Somebody warn em I wasn't getting to know ya I just wanna show ya You're a waste of my time You are a waste of my time You are a waste of my time You're still on my mind
