you said take the violin that you hang on your wall
stick it under your bed before it crumbles and falls
just don't open your eyes before counting to ten
i can hardly remember just the smell of your hands
as they danced on my body running over my pores
with the force of a steering wheel crushing my bones
said you smell like the devil but you feel like the lord
when i think of perfection you know i'm thinking of your voice
when you tell me you don't call him your baby
cause that was the name that you rightfully gave me
and it's foolish to share with someone else

my heart goes bum bum bum bum bum
bum bum bum bum bum

but you admit that you're lonely you're as cold as a statue
pleading 'fuck me' on the marble that was used to create you
i can't stand that you're talking when you shouldn't be living
i didn't dodge all your bullets just denied that they hit me
when my body is bleeding i won't admit that this hurts
cause admitting isn't fixing so then what is it worth
so to say you're unhappy is like saying you're sorry
it's nothing that i care to hear

bum bum bum bum bum
bum bum bum bum bum
bum bum bum bum bum
bum bum bum bum bum

now the tears in your jeans are the holes in your armor
you're the thoughts that i've feared you're the mountain i've conquered
if i told you i loved you would you reach out and touch me
you taste like the ocean and your body's disgusting
the only reason you breathe is to sleep through the night
the only reason you speak is to tell me i'm fine
the only reason you breathe is to sleep through the night
the only reason you speak is to state that you're mine

my heart goes bum bum bum bum bum
bum bum bum bum bum
bum bum bum bum bum
bum bum bum bum bum
bum bum bum bum bum
bum bum bum bum bum
