The redness of his face permits
The truth his words won t dare admit
His sunken eyes are hid behind a darkened lens
Chorus:
Broken doors and thoughtless words
The tyre tracks on her dead lawn
Feeble threats and loveless debts
Prove nothing when she steals your breath
Verse:
She stands tall with strength; not height
You can see the fists inside her eyes
Now it s time for her revenge,
Delivered acid tongue
God pity/help him
She sits there in the aftermath
As the cars are driving slowly past
Chorus:
Broken doors and thoughtless words
The tyre tracks on her dead lawn
Feeble threats and loveless debts
Prove nothing when she steals your breath
She sits there in the aftermath
And listens as cars drive slowly past
His final show, his lies
Have done nothing but cure her smile
(Her bruises fade from black to blue)
Over time, they slowly heal
(You think you ve grown, found love again)
When you break your own heart, it will never mend
Chorus:
Broken doors and thoughtless words
The tyre tracks on her dead lawn
Feeble threats and loveless debts
Prove nothing when she steals your breath
Broken doors and thoughtless words
Feeble threats and loveless debts
Broken doors and thoughtless words
The tyre tracks on her dead lawn
Feeble threats and loveless debts
Prove nothing when she steals your breath
