Madwoman in the Attic Lyrics

I could wrap you up

I could call you mine

I could

I could pull a gun

I could draw a line

I could

I could decide tonight that no-one ever sees me again

Set the walls alight and let the last thought tear through my brain

I could choose someone other than myself for once

Call your bluff next time you say I'm good enough

I could fling the windows wide to hear the bells for once

I could let you see me cry so you could help for once

I could ask for you to stay

I could ask for them to go

I could sit with you for hours

Right here in our little home

I could, but I won't

I could, you know I won't

I could, I could, I could

I could play the saint

All dressed in white

I could

I could talk in tones

Bring you back to life

I could

I could decide tonight that I won't ever make you angry again

Take the weight of my words and cast them back till they fall on my head

I could be someone other than myself for once

Call your bluff next time you yell I'm good enough

I could paint my face up nice and be the girl you want

Could just let you see me cry so you can help for one

I could ask for you to stay

I could ask for them to go

I could sit with you for hours

Right here in our little home

I could, but I won't

I could, you know I won't

I could, I could, I could

Ooh remember running mental laps around my heart

Ooh as the sun reflected petals through your yard

Ooh remember when I wouldn't speak

And still you thought I was

The type of pain you need

Ooh remember just how close you flew up to the sun to try and reach me

Now everyday we find another little way to hate each other

And each time you stay I find another fucking reason

I've realised

That I just can't

Live without you
