Lyrics Meg Myers – Tourniquet

Gotta give you up but I don’t know how
I’m on my knees
And I wanna know the secret of love
Of love

But I can’t keep taking
I’m numb, I’m sedated

Only love hurts like this
So tie a rope around my wrist
I’m losing, I’m losing the feeling
You’re my tourniquet
Sticks and stones built my home
And all the faces I have known
I’m losing, I’m losing the feeling
You’re my tourniquet
You’re my tourniquet

One touch and I’m running for the hills
But how could I leave when the pain gets real?
Make me feel
Cover up in the middle of the night
Like a child I was scared
I was lonely, I was fighting a good fight
Bright light

But I can’t keep taking
I’m numb, I’m sedated

Only love hurts like this
So tie a rope around my wrist

You’re my tourniquet
You’re my tourniquet
