salt in the wounds

salt in the wounds （口上撒盐）-LiL BO WEEP

Sat on the mattress and I listen to you

While you sat on the couch

And poured salt in my wounds

As I looked you in the eye

And I knew that you knew

I deserve to be alone

And I don't deserve you

You're the hard way out

'Cause that's the way that I learn

It's a dangerous game and

We're not timing our turns

It seems like every arguments

Another scar that you burn

And if you put the fire out

You'd have to live with the burns

Do I wanna be right or do I wanna be left

Don't think either one would

Fill this f**king void in my chest

Knowing you're not an object

You're a person you're the best

So why the f**k am

I still interested in all the rest

I need to rest and retire

Not die out and expire

If I was a car I'd just need a new tire

Not some jumper cables not a battery

'Cause I still can't move

If you're mad at me

I need a tire iron and a strategy

'Cause you can't fix a broken heart

With flattery

I'm ashamed and in pain

But I know that I deserve it

You always warned me of what

Could happen but I never heard it

You didn't realize that

I controlled your heart until I hurt it

You're so perfect

I have no idea why I'm not deserted

When you looked into my eyes

I saw through your disguise

You made the fire grow

You never felt so low

You thought it was the end

I don't want to pretend

That everything's okay

Just to make it through a day

I told you I love you so

You told me that you know

So I gave you my heart

And you broke it all apart

I wish you had begone

To know that we are one

This connection is so strong

So please don't do us wrong

I can't let you go

So please forever know

That I do love you

It's all I care for to
