I heard rumours you came down
Falling, your quiet resistance was under fire
I heard rumours from the mirror in the glass
Calling the fatal attraction of a damaged mind
I kiss the ground before you
I cut my eyes out for you
Restless, blinded by my love
I sink below the deep blue
I drink the poison while I wait here
Praying for my time
Oh, why do I keep you
Is it love to stay or to leave you?
Oh, why do I keep you?
Is it love to stay or to leave you?
I heard rumours you came back
Crawling, defying the whispers in the walls
And the shadows call they’re here to take you over
Follow the cracks in the pavement to take you home
I kiss the ground before you
I cut my eyes out for you
Reckless, blinded by my love
I sink below the deep blue
I drink the poison while I wait here
Praying for my time
Oh, why do I keep you
Is it love to stay or to leave you?
Oh, why do I keep you?
Is it love to stay or to leave you?
Oh (oh), why do I keep you
Is it love (love) to stay or to leave you?
Oh (oh), why do I keep you?
Is it love (love) to stay or to leave you?
