Lyrics

[Verse 1]
And hate runs through my blood
Well my tongue was in love
But my heart was left above
I? ve got to be leaving now
I thought I? d never be shot down
But girl I? m black and blue
So beaten down for you
Well I? m beaten down in bloom

[Chorus]
Don't break away
I waste away
Don't break away

[Verse 2]
And lay me out across the grey
Hours I should have kept at bay
Well I had a chance to get away
I can? t escape my own escape
Even more when it? s sweet to the taste
Red stairs lead sense astray
I look up and seek for faith
Oh but girl just lean over and say
Well lay me down
Pull me out
Well take my crown again
He? s submerged in doubt

[Verse 3]
But wait, I make my last request
See this could be the best
But blue I need to rest
See I been broken down
So much has lost it now
I just stop and say
Girl don? t you worry? bout a thing
Baby, blue
