[Verse 1]: All along I felt the fire below But I kept my feet from, touching the burning coals Like a deer caught in the light of her face, I never knew what hit me till it was too late So take a bite my guard is down, while I let you turn the things I said around if lips were a megaphone of pain, well darling don't you have something to say? [Verse 2]: Moving hands won't make up for the silence seeping through the cold air in the room And the stories you tell of some other hands you held in a town where no one ever goes So take a bite, my guard is down It won't take much to break my heart now Tried to pull you close, but your love ran far All you ever wanted was to hear me say, how pretty you are [Chorus 1]: Either Breathe me completely or not at all Know the things I love, or believe I have none
You're not the only one who was trying to find their face Darling there's an art to hurting alone, all I am is a ghost at [Verse 3]: Cause all along I held the icy hands Of a carnal feeling, leading me into the woods And they laugh, around a wooden crutch of beer and wine and while she gives me a dark look Take all you want, my body's tied to a chair while you whip what's left of my mind Oh your mouth is a megaphone of pain, well darling now I have something to say [Chorus 2]: You never loved me completely, no not at all Counted the beats of my heart, only to let me bleed out in the dark You're not the only one who's trying to find their face Darling there's an art to hurting alone, all I am is a ghost at your table
