Operating Table Lyrics by Blameshift

Secrets

2013

You stitched my heart back on my sleeve
And you showed it how to beat
And you showed me how to breathe

You open me up like a seam
As I wait for surgery
As I wait for surgery

So, put me back together in one piece
Give me the MEDICINE I need

When you're away
Know I'll wait just to feel you
I'm scared that I'll die without you

I'm lost, you're not around
While the minutes chase me down
So, as long as we hold on
We can be worlds APART

When all else failed
I'd given up
A ship that's wrecked at sea
But you made it through to me

And in my head
Your face ingrained
My eyes so tightly shut
And the image of our masterpiece
Can only right the wrong's inside of me
Give me the medicine I need

When you're away
Know I'll wait just to feel you
I'm scared that I'll die without you

I'm lost, you're not around
While the minutes chase me down
So, as long as we hold on
We can be worlds apart

Let's watch the sun BURN out
As the sky turns amber red
We'll watch the sun BURN out

And I don't care if we're the only two left on this EARTH
I'd kill to keep these MEMORIES of you
And in a hundred years I hope you pull me close
And still remember how this feels

When you're away
Know I'll wait just to feel you
I'm scared that I'll die without you

I'm lost, you're not around
While the minutes chase me down
So, as long as we hold on
We can be worlds apart
