We Know Who Our Enemies Are

mewithoutYou

Save my skin, I need a medic 
Hold me down, I'm only sewn down. 
Save my teeth, show me you meant it 
Catch my death, I'm only sewn together. 

My eyelids are heavy, and the night's wearing on 
Your story's familiar, and your innocence is gone 
We'd burn like the morning then break like your heart 
Fall in love without warning just to fall back apart 
All fevered and blistered, with nothing at stake 
I feel the warmth of her whisper, and the cold of my mistakes 
Her soul in the balance, my heart in her hands 
I made her a widow, she made me a man.
