Save my skin, I need a medic

Hold me down, I'm only sewn down.

Save my teeth, show me you meant it

Catch my death, I'm only sewn together.



My eyelids are heavy, and the night's wearing on

Your story's familiar, and your innocence is gone

We'd burn like the morning then break like your heart

Fall in love without warning just to fall back apart

All fevered and blistered, with nothing at stake

I feel the warmth of her whisper, and the cold of my mistakes

Her soul in the balance, my heart in her hands

I made her a widow, she made me a man.
