Blood

Don't you talk to me like that
Can't you see the bones you crack
Every word is an attack
But you won't let me fight back
Can't you see the work you've done
Pushed away your only love
The second comes I'll pack and run
Yes, I'll forgive you but I won't trust

Oh, I'm just a call away
If you can promise this will change
But all your damage has been made
So, for right now I just can't stay

Decisions have repercussions
And your wickedness brings destruction
No, I don't wanna let you go
But I can't heal this broken home
You've taken my self-assurance
Feeling like all that I am is worthless
No, I don't wanna let you go
But I can't take these wounds, no more

And years go by, a couple kids
A couple of grays still you're far away
No call, no call
I lie awake, I roll, I shake just praying that your heart might change
No call, no call

Is your pride still worth this priceless?
Gold to see your blood fill out and grow
Is your anger worthless wretched?
Hole deep inside I think you really know

Oh, you're missing what you can't give back
And when you're dying I know you'll regret that
Oh, I wanna let you in
But you can't hurt us like you did
Building trust always takes time
Only a fool runs in blind
You know, I wanna let you in
Don't let the story end like this
