Michael Burch - Tourniquet Lyrics




Haven't we been over this before
Please stop looking me right in my eyes
You still hold the keys to all my doors
And won't stop whispering the sweetest lies
You've got a tendency to corner me 'fore I can take a breath
Break me down and take it all from me 'till I've got nothing left
My heart ain't yours to steal but you wanna claim it anyway
You don't want nothing real but I still heed the lies you say

"The water is sweet. The water is fine."
I might be in too deep this time

Oh, please, can't you see that I can't handle it
You watch me bleed until I need a tourniquet
It's not enough for you to leave me broken
You cut me deep and then you leave me open

I feel your venom sinking in and drowning all my veins
It's distortin' all my thinkin' and it's driving me insane
You intertwine all of your lines with a wicked sincerity
Then suddenly I come to find I've lost everything dear to me
We've been over this more than just once
I thought I would've been stronger by now
Standing in these ruins yelling, "What have I done?"
I know I've gotta get out somehow but

"The water is sweet. The water is poison."
All the clarity gets lost in the noise again

Oh, please, can't you see that I can't handle it
You watch me bleed until I need a tourniquet
It's not enough for you to leave me broken
You cut me deep and then you leave me open

I never wanted a master, never wanted a mistress
But this is a disaster that I can't just dismiss

Haven't we been over this before
Please stop looking me right in my eyes
You still hold the keys to all my doors
Won't you please stop whispering all these lies

Oh, please, can't you see that I can't handle it
You watch me bleed until I need a tourniquet
It's not enough for you to leave me broken
You cut me deep and then you leave me open
It's not enough for you
It's not enough for you
It's not enough for you to leave me broken
You love to watch me bleed
