Beating heart and ticking clocks
They always stop and never start again
Don't tell me to calm down
Don't tell me to calm down
Tonight my skin's the canvas and this knife is the brush
I will paint a portrait of you etched deep in want and love
Well I've prayed to god and I've prayed to you
I've begged for life and I'll beg for you
Don't tell me to calm down
Don't tell me to calm down
We are both sleeping on different corners of the same bed
With my heart in your hands and your heart in mine
We will crush each other all to pieces
Tonight my skin is paper and with this knife I'll cut
Paper hearts and butterflies to show you that there is love
Well I've prayed to god and I've prayed to you
I've begged for life and I beg of you
Don't tell me to calm down
Don't tell me to calm down
We are both sleeping on different corners of the same bed
With my heart in your hands and your heart in mine
We will crush each other all to pieces
Pick up all the pieces
Glue our hearts back together
Pick up all the pieces
Glue our love back together
And when I am a ghost
And you are missing me the most
I will never leave your side
Even though that you left mine
