Hanging (Acoustic)

Hanging on your every word

And any time you talk the rope is burning

Maybe I'm just brave when I'm asleep

I tell you how you kill me in my dreams

I wouldn't like to hold my breath

To be pushed under water when I'm coming up for air

Somebody good shouldn't feel so bad

Well, I must've done something to deserve to feel this sad

And my heart won't grow

With your fingers down my throat

It's a hard brown stone

Like an embryo

It will never be a part of me worth finding

I'm going home to intubate

'Cause every time we talk I suffocate

Remember when you said I'm a disease

And how you'd like to kill me in your dreams

I couldn't help but hold my breath

For a change in direction, now I'm running out of air

Somebody good shouldn't be so cruel

And I know you don't mean it but I'm breaking like a wound

And my heart won't grow

With your fingers down my throat

It's a hard brown stone

Like an embryo

It will never be a part of me worth finding

Yeah, you were a part of me

I'm so relieved it hurts
