July

I hate to be weak You know you're right You said the things you knew Would hit me hardest I've lost to the same hand A million times since July  And here the pain comes 'round And I'm still haunted The only thing keeping me afloat Is how I still am looking up To an American and she said "Don't let your heart be broken" But there you go with your ropes around My neck and chest and there I am Dragged along the floor behind you "You're mine forever" And it's in stone In ancient scrolls The train that takes the broken home The fire that burns and keeps me up You knew me way too much You know how to lie I know how to feel And I feel every single stab on the back that'll never heal I've promised things I shouldn't have To the wrong one And now I'm glued to a page of pain and humiliation and The only thing keeping me going Is that old soul who told me how I'd want to be there if it  Ever gets better but Pull the damn rope, end it all That's easier than being this hurt Dragged along the floor behind you And it's in stone In ancient scrolls The train that takes the broken home The fire that burns and keeps me up You knew me way too much Ah Ooh You knew just how to hurt me You knew just how to kill me You knew me way too much
