By the stroke of my hand
I'll never hold you again
Go save that love for someone
For something, for somewhere
And by the weight of my head
I'll always drown in regret
You save that love for someone
For something, for somewhere

Hey, are you tied up?
And you're too tired to break the ties
Hands behind my back
And you're too tired to cut the slack

You say that I'm a mess whenever I try my best
We both know I'm not the best for you

By the stroke of my hand
I'll never hold you again
Go save that love for someone
For something, for somewhere
And by the weight of my head
I'll always drown in regret
You save that love for someone
For something, for somewhere (somewhere)

Yeah, I get caught in webs (with some wings I cut)
Yeah, you say I'm too old to play the game
We can make amends (to fly, oh)
Bloody veins filled with constant hatred

You say that I'm a mess whenever I try my best
We both know I'm not the best for you (ooh, ooh)

And by the stroke of my hand
I'll never hold you again
Go save that love for someone
For something, for somewhere (somewhere)
And by the weight of my head
I'll always drown in regret
You save that love for someone
For something, for somewhere (somewhere)

And by the weight of my head
I'll always drown in regret
You save that love for someone
For something, for somewhere
