Verse 1
I want to take the bullet
the one aimed straight
for your heart
i want to meet
the wolves halfway
and let them tear me apart
but that's not the way
they do it hear
Verse 2
i want to lay on the tracks
feel hot steel screaming at me
expose the bones on my back
let me show you what i mean.
yeah it's a different
kind of love
i want to climb
barbed wire fences
and warm our hands in blood
Interlude

Chorus
and this is my gift
is asking you to fix
my ruined hands
and it's a gift that
keeps on giving
and it's a gift that
keeps on giving
and it's a gift that
keeps on giving
and right now it's
all i have to give
Post Chorus: Fm--C#-- x2
Verse 3
i want to lay on the tracks
feel hot steel screaming at me
expose the bones on my back
let me show you what i mean.
i want to lay on the tracks
feel hot steel screaming at me
expose the bones on my back
let me show you what i mean
Outro
i want to write the perfect song
and play it just for you
while you are tangled in sleep
i need you more than
i'll ever know
until i stop breathing
(Hold)
my lungs will take you for granted
