Lyrics for Wristcutters Lullaby

It's hard for you Seeing things the way you do. When you gave up that way I knew. You might get hurt again. I ran, when the police tried to contact me. I ran, I was so much afraid. I ran, till my legs buckled under me. I ran, but I wish that I'd stayed. When I agreed to leave. I didn't think you had to give Another demonstration like you did And hurt yourself again. I ran, when the police tried to contact me. I ran, I was so much afraid. I ran, till my legs buckled under me. I ran, but I wish that I'd stayed. And now your lying injured in your bed. I feel responsible for what you did. I sometimes wish that it was me instead of you. I want to say. I'm sorry that I couldn't stay. Although I let you down today. You won't get hurt again. I ran, when the police tried to contact me. I ran, I was so much afraid. I ran, till my legs buckled under me. I ran, but I wish that I'd stayed.
