Push me to the ground

They say you pick everything you find

I guess what they say is true

Now all my roses have fallen behind

I'm left with bloody thorns from you

Lust is easy love is hard

You flatter those you scarcely know

You please the fleeting guest

And deal out thoughtless blows

To the one who loves you the most, whoa

I take you up the mountain

You take my heart and push me to the ground

I give you all my power

You give me nothing but your broken crown

I teach your pain how to sing

You teach me why I leave what I have found

I take you up the mountain

You take my heart and push me to the ground

You shed a little light and then you cave in on me

The villain begs the hero to choose

From the dust and dogs of empty days

The silence whistles memories of you

Oh lover come lover quickly go

Scrape the surface you're a skipping stone

And when you disappear I'm better off with tears

Than knowing I was always alone, whoa
