Bloodstains

I’m aching and you’re aching with these dull and empty hearts
We’re waiting for somebody to rip our ribs apart
And to seize with a steady hand our dull and empty hearts
Our hearts

I’m taking and you’re taking we’ve forgotten how to give
I’m faking it, you’re breaking it and its just the way it is
So we’ll leave here tonight but not before we give each other back our hearts

Cos our love
Left us long ago
When we were both asleep
Leaving blood stains in the snow
Leaving blood stains in the snow

I’m waiting and you’re waiting but this trains not gonna come
You’re voice has started grating and I hate what we’ve become
See there’s no future at this station we’re just feeding off the crumbs
Of our hearts

I’m shaking and you’re shaking its just the way its got to be
In this love abandoned autumn we’ll go raking up the leaves
The leaves that have fallen from these cold and dying trees in our hearts

Cos our love
Left us long ago
When we were both asleep
Leaving blood stains in the snow

Well I’m lonely like you’re lonely
But its only cos its thrown me
Like its thrown you I don’t own you
And my darling you don’t own me
And its kicking and its yelling
And its bruising and its swelling
But the writings on the wall
And we both know what its been telling us to do
Telling us to do

Well I’m crying and you’re crying in to silent salty lakes
The road has turned to ice and we haven’t any brakes
So while the wall keeps getting closer
I fear its too late not to break our hearts
