original text at lyrnow.com/1983650
Keep it up, they won't be able to hear you
Keep it up, they won't be able to save you
Leave it up to you to put your faith in me
No amount of time can heal these cuts it seems
Picking up the path we took quite separately
Never thought I'd end up being the enemy

(Just can't let it go)
What is blood if not spilled so sweetly?
We are severed like flesh, and cleanly
(You just can't let it go)
Camellia iris looking back at me

Past second chance, take away my hand
Left you with your prayer
All eight your maidens to deliver your betrayer

Force me to quit, light me to burn
So I can't get up in the dirt
Your love will be the death of me
We speak in vain and swear silently, but
I would take the lash, take the shame
Maybe pretend I share the blame
If I was a better man
And if this was a different game
Keep it up, they won't be able to hear you
Keep it up, they won't be able to save you
I was such a mess you never could have cleaned
Tried to fix you up, I tried to make you queen
Couldn't recognize the lines that lay between
Now you wanna see my head in a guillotine

(Just won't let it go)
I can't let it go, I kinda like how it feels
I like that we'd be this way
(You just won't let it go)
We tried a love that doesn't heal

Tell me, God, are you real?
And will you take this deal to punish her?
She's my enemy
And from the land of death
Will you deliver me?

Past second chance, take away my hand
Left you with your prayer
All eight your maidens to deliver your betrayer

Force me to quit, light me to burn
So I can't get up
I can't get up
Force me to quit, light me to burn
So I can't get up in the dirt
Your love will be the death of me
We speak in vain and swear silently, but
I would take the lash, take the shame
Maybe pretend I share the blame
If I was a better man
And if this was a different game
