why must i bleed for those i love?
why can’t they see it’s them i trust?
i’m shouting loud but it’s never enough,
my heart’s on fire, but you call it dust.

i’ve been pulling thorns out of my own skin,
every time you strike, you say it’s “discipline.”
i’m the mirror you refuse to look in,
breaking just to make you whole again.

and i keep carrying what’s not mine,
drawing scars just to draw a line.
you say i’m selfish when i say “i’m tired,”
but i’ve been burning on your fire.

why must i bleed for those i love?
why can’t they see it’s them i trust?
i’m shouting loud but it’s never enough,
my heart’s on fire, but you call it dust.

why must i bleed for those i love?

why must i bleed for those i love?

i’ve given you everything you could touch,
but you only want more, you only want more.
how do i find myself again
when i’m lying face-down on the floor?

why must i bleed for those i love?
why can’t they see it’s them i trust?
i’m shouting loud but it’s never enough,
my heart’s on fire, but you call it dust.

Bleed for me instead
