I thought that I've been hurt before
But no one's ever left me quite this sore
Your words cut deeper than a knife
Now I need someone to breathe me back to life
Got a feeling that I'm going under
But I know that I'll make it out alive
If I quit calling you my lover
And move on
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe, shaking
Falling onto my knees
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needin' stitches
Tripping over myself, aching
Begging you to come help
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needin' stitches
Just like a moth drawn to a flame
Oh, you lured me in, I couldn't sense the pain
Your bitter heart, cold to the touch
Now I'm gonna reap what I sow
I'm left seeing red on my own
Got a feeling that I'm going under
But I know that I'll make it out alive
If I quit calling you my lover
And move on
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe, shaking
Falling onto my knees
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needin' stitches
Tripping over myself, aching
Begging you to come help
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needin' stitches
Needle and the thread, gotta get you out of my head
Needle and the thread, gonna wind up dead
Needle and the thread, gotta get you out of my head
Needle and the thread, gonna wind up dead (gonna wind up dead)
Needle and the thread, gotta get you out of my head (gotta get you out of my head)
Needle and the thread, gonna wind up dead (wind up dead)
Needle and the thread, gotta get you out of my head
Get you out of my head (gotta get you out of my head)
You watch me bleed until I can't breathe, shaking
Falling onto my knees (falling on my knees)
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needin' stitches (I'll be needin' stitches)
Tripping over myself, aching
Begging you to come help (begging, baby, please)
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needin' stitches
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needin' stitches
And now that I'm without your kisses
I'll be needin' stitches
