Emily Davis - Bled for You

Stars they all burn here like embers tonight, this winter has set in my bones
Strangers for seconds trading the lessons of battle scars blood sticks and stones

I am still standing with roses manhandled at the graveyard you built for your heart
I've come to make offerings pray for safe passage, and weep by the stones in the dark

I waited for you, didn't know what else I should do
I bled for you, didn't know what else I should do

You have seen storms that I can't imagine, the tempests have rattled your bones
But rather than fight it, you take it in silence and pray to sink soft like a stone
When all of the layers have fallen away, to reveal your untouchable heart
Such a luminous entity fails not on purity, but on fear that drives two loves apart

I waited for you, didn't know what else I should do.
I bled for you, didn't know what else I should do
