Lyrics

(v) stuck again
i know that part
it's why i'm with you
from the start

don't try to be the
parent-friend
that's how this is
gonna end

(c) it's not the tourniquet i need
please take it off so i can bleed
this poison love
from my veins

(v) you said that love
was with you now
so why you running
all around

scared to lose that
certain charm
i think that
everbody knows

(c) it's not the tourniquet i need
please take it off so i can bleed
this poison love
from my brain

there was a time when i could run
but now i guess that i'm just dumb
i been standing
in one place

(br) it's falling apart
it's falling apart again
it's falling apart
it's falling apart again
