The Cut That Always Bleeds [Live]

"I don't love you anymore"

A pretty line that I adore

Five words that I've heard before

'Cause you keep me on a rope

And tied a noose around my throat

You're gone then back at my door

'Cause if you're gonna leave, better leave, better do it fast

Can't live a little longer sitting on your lap

'Cause you know what you're doin' when you're comin' back

And I don't wanna have another heart attack

Oh, I can't be your lover on a leash

Every other week, when you please

Oh, I can't be the kiss that you don't need

The lie between your teeth

The cut that always bleeds

(Ah-ah-ah)

The cut that always bleeds

(Ah-ah-ah)

Say you love somebody new

Then beat my heart to black and blue

Then they leave, and it's me you come back to (Ah-ah)

To say you loved me all along

And kiss the bruises 'til they're gone

Bittersweet, 'cause I can't breathe inside your arms

'Cause if you're gonna leave, better leave, better do it fast

Can't live another minute bleedin' from my back

'Cause I don't have another one for you to stab

And I don't wanna have another heart attack

Oh, I can't be your lover on a leash

Every other week, when you please

Oh, I can't be the kiss that you don't need

The lie between your teeth, sing

(The cut that always bleeds)

(Ah-ah-ah)

The cut that always bleeds

(Ah-ah-ah)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) But even though you're killing me, yeah

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) I need you like the air I breathe

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) I need, I need you more than me

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) I need you more than anything

(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Please, please

'Cause I could be your lover on a leash

Every other week, when you please

Oh, I could be anything you need

As long as you don't leave

The cut that always
