I know you didn't mean to I know it wasn't your intention But when you say I hurt you I can't help but think that you made me You gave me the knife that you fell into And never understood my concern as your blood poured over my white clothes No amount of bleach could wash the stains away Yet I continued to scrub desperately at this tarnished cloth Until the seams began to separate And I know you didn't mean to And I know it wasn't your intention But I was left uncovered and cold And you didn't hold me anymore.

Tarnished Love
I know you didn't mean to I know it wasn't your intention But when you say I hurt you I can't help but think that you made me You gave me the knife that you fell into And never understood my concern as your blood poured over my white clothes No amount of bleach could wash the stains away Yet I continued to scrub desperately at this tarnished cloth Until the seams began to separate And I know you didn't mean to And I know it wasn't your intention But I was left uncovered and cold And you didn't hold me anymore.
