Your Love Won't Save Me (Acoustic)

Is that all you want from me
A lonely lover's only reason to bleed
In late night fights that bite
And bring me to my knees

If you could slay away the cravings in this dream
I'd find a grave and sleep the lifetime in-between

Why would you think that your love would save me
When you know that if it did I would die?
But every time I come back to life I see that look in your eye
And I fight

I can't turn and walk away
From all the trials, tribulations, and pain
That I've reaped for centuries
Left in your wake

You can feed the beast, but it won't be your prey
Or a stake you claim until your dying day

Why would you think that your love would save me
When you know that if it did I would die?
But every time I come back to life I see that look in your eye
And I fight

Why would you think that your love could save me
When you know that if it did I would die?
But every time I come back to life I see that look in your eye
And ask why

I won't
Wake up one day like an angel
Free
Of all that I've done and seen
I won't
Wake up one day like an angel
Free
Of all that I've done and seen

Because our passion is in the fashion of your woe
And this heart will never beat before it goes
But I'll still haunt your home

Why would you think that your love would save me
When you know that if it did I would die?
But every time I come back to life I see that look in your eye
And ask why

Why do we lie when our love still runs
Around the shadow town of a soul
Where happiness is only the hole at the end of it all?

I won't wake up one day like an angel
