Clean Breaks Lyrics - Shade Of Poison Trees - Dashboard Confessional

I believe in clean breaks, I keep the old troubles away 

But you're making sure 

I was lying when I said 

"I can leave, 

This behind" 

I need you to ruin me 

For this, finally, 

'Cause it's burying me 

Now, I'm in these old knots 

Each move keeps me locked away

With each new embrace, 

I have tied myself up. 

More tightly, 

Into you 

Oh, but the more I fight 

Then the deeper I'm trapped 

And I can't break free of this hold that you have 

And I crave you more 

Under the heat of your touch 

And I need your skin 

To ruin me 

For this wicked town 

Where your ghosts are bound 

To me 

Photos 

One last sacrifice 

Of this ritual escape 

I was lying when I said... 

"I believe, 

in clean breaks"
