Evelyn

I'm not a saint for knocking at your door
Don't feel ashamed to anesthetize the sore
Just slip away lying on the floor

Anxiety hunts us like an animal
And the desire in our heads acts like a cannibal
I tried so hard to release you from the chains

Why does it hurt this way?

Evelyn. Evelyn, Evelyn
Baby stop throwing knives at my heart
I still miss you from the other side

Tryin’ to bleed the pain out of the holes
Dryin’ the tears with pills and alcohol
No, you could never wash my guilt away

Anxiety hunts us like an animal
‘Cause the desire in our heads acts like a cannibal
And I tried so hard to get you out

Why does it hurt this way?

Evelyn. Evelyn, Evelyn
Baby stop throwing knives at my heart
I still miss you from the other side

Our thing will be here when you’re back
Nothing will change the way we are
Someday you’ll listen to yourself and we’ll start over once again

I will not break, I will not fall, I’ll paint your name along the walls
Nothing but you, remember
Nothing just you, remember

Evelyn. Evelyn, Evelyn
Baby stop throwing knives at my heart
I still miss you from th e other side

Evelyn. Evelyn, Evelyn
