I thought I had it all fixed up   then the past came in   I thought I had it all closed off   then the truth came in   Leave it to love to tear me down   Leave it to you when you're not around      I hoped that everything would get back good   I hoped that I could keep you but I never could   See the answers in your eyes   Feel the truth inside your lies      Chorus:   And all the voices in my head   Just could not be chased away   Now my heart is filled with lead   You were too far gone to stay   Leave it to love to tear me down   Leave it to you when you're not around      I could never watch you losing your soul   You gave me one more time and then I let you go   Touch your skin and touch your scars   You can tell me who you are      Chorus:   And all the voices in my head   Just could not be chased away   Now my heart is filled with lead   You were too far gone to stay   Leave it to love to tear me down   Leave it to you when you're not around      Bridge:   And even in my dreams I can see your burning wings   Touch your skin and touch your scars   You can tell me who you are      Chorus:   And all the voices in my head   Just could not be chased away   Now my heart is filled with lead   You were too far gone to stay   Leave it to love to tear me down   Leave it to you when you're not around
