Blood From a Stone lyrics

I stepped off the bus to the sobering cold

And realized this bullshit is getting old

I reach and you run, I leave then you come

We have mastered the push and pull

If I were a friend of mine

I know exactly what I'd say

But a spoonful of sugar

Don't make your own medicine easier to take

I don't believe in giving up

Without a good fight

Falling for potential

Ruins me every time

I'm packing up my tears

And all of my false goodbyes

I'm throwin' em over my shoulder

And closing the door behind me cuz

Trying to get love from you baby

Is like trying to get blood from a stone

And I've been watching myself going crazy

While my broken heart's still holding on

Ain't it funny how the truth it can stare you dead in the face

But you'd sooner believe a lie

Well I got myself in this twice narrowed place

With my ability to justify

A little too much whiskey and not enough sleep

Has lifted the veil now I can finally see

I don't believe in giving up

Without a good fight

Falling for potential

Ruins me every time

I'm packing up my tears

And all of my false goodbyes

I'm thrown' em over my shoulder and closing the door behind me cuz

Trying to get love from you baby

Is like trying to get blood from a stone

And I've been watching myself going crazy

While my broken heart's still holding on

I made you want me

I even made you leave

But the one thing I just can't seem to do

Is make you bleed for me

Trying to get love from you baby

Is like trying to get blood from a stone

And I've been watching myself going crazy

While my broken heart's still holding on
