The Tie That Binds


Been thinking too much about you And its filling me with dread My soul is screaming for its mate Cant silence the noise in my head You cut me deep once before Im still trying to stop the bleeding How can i follow my heart When i cant see where it's leading? Clouding my vision Blocking my view Blind me with lies So i cant see the truth You just cant repair the damage done But i know you're not the only one With hands too shaky to fix this I've tried to stitch this tightly But its bursting at the seams With skeletons and broken bones Of unfulfilled, forgotten dreams And records of regrets are Playing over in our minds We just want it all to end And its the only tie that binds us
