Courrier For Your Sake Lyrics

Nearing one in the morning, nearing one
The streetlights were smoking
The streetlights were smoking like a gun

In your eyes was a warning, in your eyes
In your step was a splinter
And every word was tinder for your fire

Beneath your skin was the bloodrush, beneath your skin
It would sell you in the moment
It would sell you for the cheapest bid
You thought you could take heaven
You thought you could take heaven with a gun
But the loving hand strikes the hardest
The loving hand strikes the hardest soul

And I know you just like a novel
Penned by my own hand

I will give and give, until its time to take
It was for your sake, it was for your sake
I will give and give, until its time to take
It was for your sake, it was for your sake
Cause to save your life, your heart must break Sometime just after daybreak, when the light had come
You found your home was a museum
A memoir to the things you used to love
You're the center of attention
The center of attention in an empty room
All you wanted was a rescue
All you needed was an open tomb
I will give and give, until its time to take
It was for your sake, it was for your sake
I will give and give, until its time to take
It was for your sake, it was for your sake
Cause to save your life, your heart must break

It was for your sake
It was for your sake
It's a give and take
It's a give and take

It was for your sake
It was for your sake
It's a give and take
It's a give and take

Cause to save your life, your heart must break
