THE KILLING SPREE

Breathing, i can feel the pain behind your words
Driving alone now this is my only cure

And i'm the newest murderer of your heart
Because this time you're not mine
And i remember feeling so insecure
This is the last time that i'll bleed for you

Nothing escapes or penetrates the walls within
And i can't remove those walls, expose myself again

And i'm the newest murderer of your heart
Because this time you're not mine
And i remember feeling so insecure
This is the last time that i'll bleed for you
This is the last time coming on
I'll bleed for you
I'll dream for you
Your shining is too bright, too bright

Whatever you do, don't hesitate

And i'm the newest murderer of your heart
Because this time you're not mine
And i remember feeling so insecure
This is the last time that i'll bleed for you




This is the last time coming on
It's the last time i'll bleed for you

Line by Line Meaning

Breathing, i can feel the pain behind your words
I can sense the hurt that you're expressing through your speech


Driving alone now this is my only cure
The only remedy to my pain is to drive solo


And i'm the newest murderer of your heart
I have just broken your heart


Because this time you're not mine
Our relationship is over


And i remember feeling so insecure
I recall being unsure about our love


This is the last time that i'll bleed for you
I won't suffer any longer for your sake


Nothing escapes or penetrates the walls within
I've become closed off and cannot be reached


And i can't remove those walls, expose myself again
I'm finding it impossible to break down my walls and be vulnerable


This is the last time coming on
This is my final effort


I'll bleed for you
I won't sacrifice myself anymore


I'll dream for you
I'll no longer have aspirations for us


Your shining is too bright, too bright
Your radiance is too much for me to handle


Whatever you do, don't hesitate
Don't second guess yourself


It's the last time i'll bleed for you
I won't be hurt by you again
