Without You - Citizen Soldier

I have tried to leave you

But my body needs you

Have to overdose so I can breathe

My abuser and my remedy

Keep the violence see through

So I’ll never doubt you

My darkness and my clarity

My refuge and my enemy

You kiss reminders deep into my neck

So I don’t forget

There’s no peace

Without you, without you

So bury me

If you have to, if you have to

I know you’re killing me by keeping me alive

But the pain you kill is more than worth the price

So there’s no peace

Without you, without you

Without you, without you

Without you, without you

You have been there sadly

More than my own family

You’re my comforter and you’re my curse

The only one that loves at my worst

They think that you’re so bad for me but I don’t buy it

'Cause every time that the trauma is triggered I’m reminded

They’re in my skeleton, they said it’s time to riot

You’re still the only thing I have to keep them quiet

There’s no peace

Without you, without you

So bury me

If you have to, if you have to

I know you’re killing me by keeping me alive

But the pain you kill is more than worth the price

So there’s no peace

Without you, without you

You make the bad things beautiful

And you’ll be worth my funeral

'Cause if you leave when I stay

I’m still dead either way

I will than before

But you’ll be worth the broken heart

'Cause if you leave when I stay

I’m still dead either way (Dead either way)

There’s no peace

Without you, without you

So bury me

If you have to, if you have to

I know you’re killing me by keeping me alive

But the pain you kill is more than worth the price

So there’s no peace

Without you, without you

They think that you’re so bad for me but I don’t buy it

'Cause every time that the trauma is triggered I’m reminded (Without you)

They’re in my skeleton, they said it’s time to riot

You’re still the only thing I have to keep them quiet (Without you)
