Stab Me In The Heart


You tell me,

Why don't you just stab me in the heart again

But what will it take for you to realize,

This isn't about you

 

I try to protect you

To make you proud

 

But doing so has left me 

Bleeding out

 

So now I stop the blades, I let them pass me by

I must do this for myself

If I am to survive
