lyrics

Dec. 7, 2004


Why stay here, this screaming
it hurts my head
The bruises, the bleeding
good as dead

The pounding, the kicking,
the way I hold you down
Convulsing, not speaking
such an awful sound.


And you told me you love me
ah, but you don’t

And I told you – I’d hold you
but baby, here I go…
here I go.



So short that I’ve known you
but long enough
For that haze of young love to
burn off

I hate you – I love you
baby which is up
How could I do what I’ve done to you
if this is love


You told me – you love me
Ah but you don’t

And I told you – I’d hold you
but babe here I go…


The Road…


Tires are worn – hear them dragging
like they don’t want me to
Turn this way, gas station,
just pulling through


No music, just heartbeat
and hard road ahead
Blurred vision, unbearable heat
I wish I was dead


You told me – you love me
what did you think that meant

And I swore I’d never hurt you
but we see how all that went



LOOK OUT The Light
That Car The Sound

The Roll The Life
The Blood The Ground

The Road…
