Crimson & Clover

Original

I boarded up the doors, but you still broke in

Been picking up the pieces of myself

You went and painted black what once was golden

You're a better version of a different hell

We speak in tongues and we disguise our faces

But in the dark, I always know it's you

So torture me when it's over

And I lose composure

It's all in my head

But I still keep holding on

Your words like crimson and clover

Call back when you're sober

Tonight will end

And tomorrow you'll be gone

(Tomorrow you'll be gone)

I'd learn to tear these walls down if you'd let me

Been holding on to secrets we can't tell

Now I'm burning all the letters that you left me

Some part of me would love to wish you well, but I don't

We pretend to know the words, but nothing changes

The hardest truth's the lie I held onto

So torture me when it's over

And I lose composure

It's all in my head

But I still keep holding on

Your words like crimson and clover

Call back when you're sober

'Cause tonight will end

And tomorrow you will say you found yourself

And you wish me back to hell

But you'll lay your head down with me on your mind

So go dream of someone else

Because we cannot fix ourselves

We only have the scars we tried to hide

But we've done this dance before a thousand times

So torture me when it's over

And I lose composure

It's all in my head

But I still keep holding on

Your words like crimson and clover

Call back when you're sober

Tonight will end

And tomorrow I'll be gone
