By the Hand

I liked his touch, his taste His smile, his face But that's the surface level camouflage He had a way with words That my heart heard And I was hopelessly, completely caught Now I'm shattered on the carpet With these letters at my feet Tell me why'd you make me fall for you So hard I skid my knees I could bottle up these tears, And sell'em as a warning But I'd still circle back for your smile in the morning Let you drag me straight to hell If you held me by the hand I'd sell Lucifer my soul For your time on demand I'd be toxic, I'd be ditsy, I'd be everything I hate Oh, I'd give it all to you and you'd still let my heart break I liked to think that he was made for me But that's the hopeless romantic talking Cause now at 26, my heart is split Between what I want, and what I need Now I'm shattered on the carpet With these letters at my feet Tell me why'd you make me fall for you So hard I skid my knees I could bottle up these tears, And sell'em as a warning But I'd still circle back for your smile in the morning Let you drag me straight to hell If you held me by the hand I'd sell Lucifer my soul For your time on demand I'd be toxic, I'd be ditsy, I'd be everything I hate Oh, I'd give it all to you and you'd still let my heart Break into pieces like he always did Guess it's true what they say Your dad's the type you pick Cause your love just leaves bruises That I know aren't needed But I crave approval like the air I'm breathing Let you drag me straight to hell If you held me by the hand I'd sell Lucifer my soul For your time on demand I'd be toxic, I'd be ditsy, I'd be everything I hate Oh, I'd give it all to you and you'd still let my heart break My heart Break
