lyrics

Take my heart
And place it on the grass
Where you sit
So the earth can
Taste how sweet I am
Hold your own hand
I don’t want you here
You don’t know
How to treat me, dear

All you do is take
You don’t know the way
To make me feel safe
So I will cast a spell
I will make you pay
For taking more than I could give
My body wasn’t yours to take
So please stay away

There’s an empty room
Inside your skull
Where I’d sleep
Thinking you deserved my love
I’m the Fool
And you’re the Three of Swords
All you wanted
Was to break my heart

All you do is take
You don’t know the way
To make me feel safe
So I will cast a spell
I will make you pay
For taking more than I could give
My body wasn’t yours to take
So please stay away

You said pain was all I’d ever feel
All I wanted was something real

All you do is take
You don’t know the way
To make me feel safe
So I will cast a spell
I will make you pay
For taking more than I could give
This body wasn’t yours to take
So please stay away
