Your cheap drink tricks and cigarettes keep you locked inside a cage
Your mother fears you,
Your father can't hear you; you're just money, a voice on a stage
I still ache from the night that you dragged me, kicking and screaming, out the door
But, I won't let go
If I can't hold you like a lover
I won't hold you at all
I wear your bruises on my shoulder now and forevermore
Driving you home from the bar and you're touching my face but, I don't make a sound
The tide is turning on you baby, and I feel nothing anymore
If I don't pull myself together this could be the end of it all
I hear your voice inside the tv telling me to follow you home
I taste your teardrops on my tongue at night and it still turns me on
There are things that we will never say but, we know, we know...
Even baby teeth will hurt you when I'm biting down
If we could stay this way forever would it ever be enough?
I wear your ache inside my heart, my dear, forever and ever
