Headswim – Tourniquet lyrics
[Verse 1]
Life come undone
Mortal coil sprung
Lifted your drifted
Welcoming sun
Some days I feel brave
Riding the air waves
Locked in this room
Give me some room
Scratching the pavement
Grazed knees and broken nails
Some small tokens of how life goes by
I'd love to see you try

[Chorus]
I won't steal your pain
Just tighten the tourniquet
You're losing the feeling
And I won't bring you down
Ripped and twisted again
You're losing the feeling

[Verse 2]
I'm counting the hours
The beauty in dead flowers
Heart that keeps you warm
The things you don't think about
Like why we feel so old
Eyes like piss-holes in the snow
Wanting to leave

[Chorus]
I won't steal your pain
Just tighten the tourniquet
You're losing the feeling
And I won't bring you down
Ripped and twisted again
You're losing the feeling

[Bridge]
All your life you stayed in tune
Singing songs for the doomed
It's always lonely being free
Never what you wanted to be

[Chorus]
I won't steal your pain
Just tighten the tourniquet
You're losing the feeling
And if I bring you down
You're too happy to be saved
Losing the feeling
Ripped and twisted again
