Systole

Once in a while
Come around and bleed it
This has got to end
Next time you're needing more

They can take it up with me
Any time you're pleading
Try it once more
It'll stop the bleeding

Try giving me a chance
To get all I ever wanted
There ain't nothing wrong
Every time I got it wrong

I could take one look
At the things that we started
Dream about our loss
That key that I brought and stole

Give a little more
As your eyes grow colder
Even if it's all that you wanted
Let it go

Take the sheets from the bed
Throw them on to the fire
Watch the room light up
As the flames grow hot and higher

Try giving me a chance
To get all I wanted
There ain't nothing wrong
Every time I got it wrong

I could take one look
At the things that we started
Dream about our loss
That key that I brought and stole
