Promising (Alt. Version)

You reached out and made it known
That I'm not in with the crowd
You pulled me closer and I fell first
And now it shows in the ground

And I would rather you take my breath, put an end to me
You can't tell me it's all wrong
'Cause this was promising

You reached in and touched my soul
You took one look in your eyes
And once again, now I can be whole
You fought this hold on the lies

And I would rather you take my breath, put an end to me
You can't tell me it's all wrong
'Cause it looks promising

You should've taken
You should've taken the words and made me bleed

I can't keep waiting
I can't keep waiting for the one to set me free

Every night, I fall asleep
I see stars in the sky
And when I dream, demons come to me
And wrest my life and seize the hope from me

You shouldn't run
You shouldn't run
You shouldn't run out on me, like I'm bleeding

You shouldn't love
You shouldn't love
You shouldn't love a wound like me

I would rather you take my breath, put an end to me
You can't tell me it's all wrong
'Cause this looks promising

You should've taken
You should've taken the words and made me bleed

'Cause I can't keep waiting
I can't keep waiting for the one to set me free
