lyrics

"I'll never do that again," he says as he stands before a full-length mirror of regret.

I've got 13 notches all around my belt, one for each county she's away from me.

And he never grows old, and he never gets bored, and he never sees the traps that she set for him...or so he's told

And when he's awake, he sleeps for days. And when he sleeps he knows the ceiling better than his hands.

He grows thinner for her,
he's given blood for her.
He grows thinner for her,
he knows that blood won't get her back.
