Lyrics

A Ballad For the Bleeding Hearts

And I will wait for this moment to come around
And I will scream just to get you to hold me down

Tried all I could
Told you to move
Buried our hearts with our hands
You told me a lie
I turned a blind eye
And never a lie did I hear
Now I fear

That I will wait
For this moment to come around
And I will scream just to get you to hold me down

I'm not crying anymore
Coz love isn't love till you bleed
And I'm not lying for you now
My heart wants to beat with the sound
But I found out
Just go ahead and cry

Tried all I could
I told you to move
We buried our hearts in our hands

You told me a lie
I turned a blind eye
Never a lie did I hear
Now I fear

That I will wait
For this moment to come around
And I will scream just to get you to hold me down
