As I lay you down to rest
Hoping it was for the best
Tear myself away from me
A pain not easy to relieve

Then suddenly I see
The child inside the man
And something breaks inside of me
Of all things we were
I never once imagined
It would leave me wanting more
So suddenly I see
We became the very thing I never wanted us to be
Regretfully for me
Of all the things you asked for, wanted
None of them were me

As I step away to breathe
Moments deep inside me freeze
You say no one here’s to blame
Forgot I waded through your shame

Then suddenly I see
The child inside the man
And something breaks inside of me
Of all things we were
I never once imagined
It would leave me wanting more
So suddenly I see
We became the very thing I never wanted us to be
Regretfully for me
Of all the things you asked for, wanted
None of them were me

As I lay you down to
As I lay you down to rest

As I lay you down to
As I lay you down to rest

As I lay you down to
As I lay you down to rest

As I lay you down to
As I lay you down to rest

As I lay you down to
As I lay you down to rest

As I lay you down to
As I lay you down to rest

As I lay you down to
As I lay you down to rest

As I lay you down to
As I lay you down to rest

What is this that you’ve asked of me
Politeness ended so suddenly
You held me blind so I couldn’t see
You make me bleed

What is this that you’ve asked of me
Politeness ended so suddenly
You held me blind so I couldn’t see
How you make me bleed
You make me bleed

What is this that you ask of me
Politeness ended so suddenly
You held me blind so I couldn’t see
How you make me bleed

What is this that you ask of me
Politeness ended so suddenly
You held me blind so I couldn’t see
How you make me bleed
