You always were my refuge, were my shelter, There was always a place to lay my head And I should've taken your hand, should've held it as we stumbled, But I'd let it slip, I'd let it go instead.
For I cannot give you as much as I owe you, I don't have enough love to pay my debts, I thought I'd have a plenty, but now I see I'm pretty empty, And the longer we linger the worse it gets.
ohhh...
So I'll plant fences 'round my dwelling like a garden, Wrap chains around my body like a cloak. And bite my tongue, not asking for forgiveness For the hearts and bones and promises I broke.
And I'll bite my tongue, not asking for forgiveness For the hearts and bones and promises I broke.
Don't you waste a tear for me, Don't you waste your time for me, Don't you waste yourself for me. Don't you waste a tear for me, Don't you waste your time with me, Don't.
