The Normal - Watch It Bleed

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/2001187
You've got a body and a face that's from a new world
I'm on my way down the street
I cut my hand open just tryna build a framework
For a second I just watched it bleed
If you're the one than how come you don't ever ask me
How things are going to be

I think I'm on the list of things you wanted dead soon
I think you've gotten over me

I'm waiting till you're ready to see
I'm ready if you're ready to be

You were on drugs and I'm in love with all the nothing
The absence of you and me
The way you walked I wasn't sure you'd make it home safe
You stumbled through all the trees
The garden grows and
The river flows and
My hand is reaching
Out for you to hold

They say that I don't care about you
They say that I'm the one who can't
They don't know that I dream about you
They don't know what running through my head
I'm ready if you're ready for me
Gotta wait it out
