London - To Write Love On Her Arms lyrics

rate me

And she has known such great pain

Haunted dreams as a child

The near constant presence of evil ever since

And she has felt the touch of awful naked men

Battled addiction and depression and attempted suicide

Her arms remember razor blades

Fifty scars that speak of self-inflicted wounds

Six hours after I meet her she's feeling trapped

Two groups of friends offering opposite ideas

Everyone's asleep

The sun is rising

And she drinks long from a bottle of liquor

And takes the razor blade from the table & locks herself in the bathroom

She cuts herself using the blade to write 'fuck up'

Large across her left forearm

And to write love on her arms

And to write love on her arms

And to write love on her arms

And this one's for Rene

And this one's for myself

Don't go

Don't go

Don't go

Rescue is possible

And to write love on her arms

And to write love on her arms

And to write love on her arms

We hold back the darkness

We can prove them wrong

Love can change life

We hold back the darkness

We can prove them wrong

Love can change life

And to write love on her arms

And to write love on her arms

And to write love on her arms

To write love on her arms
