You’re just a war

To tear your walls down

And lay this weight

You fall

Gsus4/F#

Into my arms

Gsus4/F

Into this pit of love

Into my heart

But you crawl

Back into his bed

His bones his body

His mind his head

Wait

Before you go

If I don’t know

And our lives turn to rust

But I’m not God

So why should I stay?

Even though I know

He wants to bear your child

But you crawl

Back into his bed

His bones his moaning

His mouth his head

Wait

Before you go

I cannot love you

If I don’t know

Wait

Before you go

I cannot love you

If I don’t know
