These Sticks

The Afghan Whigs

From shallow breathing
A different storm begins
Misplaced your feelings?
Well, that ain't your problem now
You thought me easy
And ripe for punishing the dead
Can't stop the bleeding
It all starts coming round againTie these sticks around my heart
Be here when it blows apart
This ain't love but let's pretend
That it's easy, easy
To forgetIn dreams you're hunted,
Around and round we go
And this is why we're coming,
And this is how you'll know
If I seem impatient
You won't be waiting long, my friendTie these sticks around my heart
Be here when it blows apart
This ain't love but let's pretend
That it's easy, easy
BabyOnce I fell in your remand
Spent so where I could not stand
Bent to suffer at your hand,
Your commandYou thought me easy
You thought me prey
I've come to meet you
I've come to make you pay
