Open Veins
You ask me to feel
your pain
And set the world to fire
I tried to stop the pain
And cast away desire
Yet you left me dead and cold
Bleeding thoughts of you
The blood stains are getting old
Now that you and I are through
And I cut the open veins
And I try to hide these pains
I'm bleeding blue
The thoughts of you
All over the floor
A pile of gore
With the knife you stabbed me with so long ago
With open veins you never know
Slice away
Fade away
You ask me where
I've been and where I've gone
But I think you really care
I've tried to turn you on
And return your candy stare
Yet you leave me lying here
All sprawled out on the floor
Bleeding all last year
You gave me so much more
And now you take it back
And now you take it all back
