The harder the words, the colder the night The closer the hand, the sharper the knife The longer you hold out The further you seem to fly I get cut and I might bleed But I won’t cry!
The bigger the love, the blacker the birds Unless they can give The more I could use The longer you hold out The further you seem to fly I get cut and I might bleed But I won’t cry!
The quicker the lie (I might bleed) The softer the moan (I might bleed) All of those whisper (I might bleed) They just sink like a stone
(I might bleed) I think momma should push on (I might bleed) Before those … just fly I get cut and I might bleed But I won’t cry!
The stronger the bond, oh, oh The tougher the loss, oh, oh The pain in my heart, oh, oh Until it just stops Once more I’ll just hold on Until I get strength to fly I get cut and I might bleed But I won’t cry! I get cut and I might bleed But I won’t cry! I get cut and I might bleed But I won’t cry! I get cut and I might bleed But I won’t cry!
