Tourniquet Lyrics

 

Give me a tourniquet
Metaphor, burning bridges
I cannot learn from it
I keep on burning shit

Give me a tourniquet
Metaphor, burning bridges
I cannot learn from it
I keep on burning shit

Break, break, break
My bones
Shattered my hopes and dreams
I tatted a 4 leaf clover
Escape, escape
I wish I had somewhere to go
I find shelter in hope
I walk with the ghosts like they’re stitched to my clothes

I keep closing doors, so self-assured
I think we should talk, I’m becoming bored of everyone
Nothing’s as they said it was

Give me a tourniquet
Metaphor, burning bridges
I cannot learn from it
I keep on burning shit

Give me a tourniquet
Metaphor, burning bridges
I cannot learn from it
I keep on burning shit

Break, break, break
My bones
Shattered my hopes and dreams
I tatted a 4 leaf clover
Escape, escape
Wish I had somewhere to go
I find shelter in hope
I walk with the ghosts like they’re stitched to my clothes

I keep closing doors, so self-assured
I think we should talk, I’m becoming bored of everyone
Nothing’s as they said it was

You can have anything you want
Your hopes, your dreams
You can have anything you want, anything you want
You can have everything
The world is your oyster
The world is your oyster

Memories, we trickle through
Belong in an institute
Use substitution
My mind is polluted
Polluted
My jokes are not funny, my jokes are not
My jokes are not funny

I’ll play the wound, you play the salt
I’ll play the wound, you play the salt
You ever tried swimming
With your hands tied?

I’m congested, lost in myself and my senses
Dilute my
My inhibitions are lost, I feel confused
You take everything I had to give
I gave you more that I had to give
What’s left? (Nothing)
What’s left? (Nothing)
You can have everything
You can take everything
I give you everything I’ve got until the last fucking bone I have

Take it all, take it all
Take it and leave, take it and leave, take it and leave please
You can have everything
