  • My stomach hurts,
    they said that it was butterflies,
    does that really qualify I'm used to this
    cause it's happened all before,
    I take the first hit,
    and I breathe you in deep,
    the high that I need
    If you let me down, let me down easy

    So I call you in a haze, with a tired clock,
    the feelings don't fade, so can we talk oh

    Honey you can play with my heart if you want,
    cause I think I'm gonna like all these scars when you're done,
    and you could get closer I swear I won't run, I won't run
    But these heart games leave me dead when you're done

    I like it on the edge, yeah,
    the voice in my head is better off dead,
    at least them I can put my mind to rest

    You show up when you need me,
    but you're always gonna leave me,
    and I don't believe you, when you say I'm bleeding

    So I call you in a haze, with a tired clock,
    the feelings don't fade, so can we talk oh

    Honey you can play with my heart if you want,
    cause I think I'm gonna like all these scars when you're done,
    and you could get closer I swear I won't run, I won't run
    But these heart games leave me dead when you're done

    Thinkin out loud, and I hear you knockin at the door
    pushing from the outside, pull me to the inside, secrets on the floor
    Here you are now, nice to see you back for more,
    and I could be your easy use when you need me (It's too easy)

    Honey you can play with my heart if you want,
    cause I think I'm gonna like all these scars when you're done,
    and you could get closer I swear I won't run, I won't run
    But these heart games leave me dead when you're done
    Honey you can play with my heart if you want,
    cause I think I'm gonna like all these scars when you're done,
    and you could get closer I swear I won't run, I won't run
    But these heart games leave me dead when you're done

    and you could come closer I swear I won't run, I won't run
    My heartbeat is gonna stop Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
