IF I BLEED Lyrics

(Life is a play that imitates art, but where the hell is my leading part?

Blades cut deep whilst knives stay sharp, even when they're dug into our heart

I told them 'If I Bleed, it will show', the pain in my face will let them know

Bloody prints show where I have walked before, it seems I forgot to close the goddamn door)

They say it's what I deserve

Truth hurts and I got my desserts

But I see it in their eyes, yeah they think I'm a monster

Quiet like a ghost, yeah I'm gonna haunt ya

Got a heart made of stone

So that they leave me alone

But they can see between the lines, see between the lies

Walk the lonely road cause I want to

I played my part (to perfection)

Protect my heart (and save rejection)

I spilt the milk on the table

Where do I go?

Cause I'm a long, long way from a home

Cause I try so hard

Work to the bone

Eyes wide open

If I bleed, it'll show

And I want to be

The cat who got the cream

Someone wake me from this sleepless dream

Cause I try to figure out

What it all means

Eyes wide open

If I bleed, you'll know

(If I bleed, you'll know

If I bleed, it'll show)

Drag myself out of the dirt

My skin starts to feel like a shirt

But I think I lost control, cause I tried to have it all

Collecting all my bricks to build a wall

Suppressing all my emotions

Cast a spell with some potions

But I think that it's too late, I've made too many mistakes

Walk the lonely road cause I've got to

I played my part (to perfection)

Protect my heart (and save rejection)

(Wait, wait, wait, what was my line again?)

I spilt the milk on the table

Where do I go?

Cause I'm a long, long way from a home

Cause I try so hard

Work to the bone

Eyes wide open

If I bleed, it'll show

And I want to be

The cat who got the cream

Someone wake me from this sleepless dream

Cause I try to figure out

What it all means

Eyes wide open

If I bleed, you'll know

(Life is a play that imitates art, but where the hell is my leading part?)

Let me them think of me how they like

And I will cut the chord

Let me them think of me how they like

And I will always want more

(Should we go back to the start?)

I spilt the milk on the table

Where do I go?

Cause I'm a long, long way from a home

Cause I try so hard

Work to the bone

Eyes wide open

If I bleed, it'll show

And I want to be

The cat who got the cream

Someone wake me from this sleepless dream

Cause I try to figure out

What it all means

Eyes wide open

If I bleed, you'll know

Drag myself out of the dirt (Let me them think of me how they like)

My skin starts to feel like a shirt (And I will cut the chord)

Bleed, you'll know

They say it's what I deserve (Let me them think of me how they like)

Truth hurts and I got my desserts (And I will always want more)

If I bleed, you'll know
