You Can't Swim With Concrete Shoes

(album: What Doesn't Kill Us - 2012)

Lying awake it's 7:30 and it's hard to breath
The air is cold, my senses numb my heart is telling me
To grab the keys to start the car and drive all night to you
I can't believe it came to this, just tell me what to do

Hearts are beating, hearts are beating out of time
Lips are bleeding, lips are bleeding red tonight

Falling to my knees, don't tell me that it's over
Don't tell me that it's over to me

I hit the lights and wipe my eyes to find her things are gone
My fingers linked, I pray for strength but no one's listening
I seize the knife, I hear your voice scream "are you happy now?"
You've got your wish, you make me sick, now drive the blade in deep

Falling to my knees, don't tell me that it's over
Don't tell me that it's over to me

With hearts on fire and target set
We taste the embers of your regret

Falling to my knees, don't tell me that it's over
Don't tell me that it's over to me

Hearts are beating, hearts are beating out of time
Lips are bleeding, lips are bleeding red tonight
