Dashboard Confessional - Clean Breaks

I believe in clean breaks
I keep the old troubles away
But you're making sure
I was lying when I said

"I can leave, this behind"
I need you to ruin me
For this, finally,
'Cause it's burying me

Now, I'm in these old knots
Each move keeps me locked away
With each new embrace
I have tied myself up

More tightly, into you Oh, but the more I fight
Then the deeper I'm trapped
And I can't break free of this hold that you have

And I crave you more
Under the heat of your touch
And I need your skin

To ruin me
For this wicked town
Where your ghosts are bound, to me

One last sacrifice
Of this ritual escape
I was lying when I said
"I believe, in clean breaks"
