[Verse 1]
I'm sick of fighting over money
I went back home to heal the pain
Late at night, I’d watch your stories
And feel the ice rushing through my veins (Fuck)
We were young, we weren't ready
MySpace, 2004
I always thought it'd be forever
So I went and got your name
[Chorus]
In a tattooed heart
(Tattooed heart, tattooed heart)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
(Tattooed heart, tattooed heart)
Oh, oh, oh, oh
(Tattooed heart, tattooed heart)
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh yeah
(Tattooed heart, tattooed heart)
[Verse 2]
You don’t need to worry about
If I go crazy, you won't be here for that
So just block me 'cause I blocked you
And then one day, I might show you
I covered up your name
[Chorus]
In this tattooed heart
(Tattooed heart, tattooed heart)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(Tattooed heart, tattooed heart)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(Tattooed heart, tattooed heart)
I covered up your name
In this tattooed heart
[Bridge]
Wrapped up in my jacket, I'm lying
Face down in my bed
And tracing underneath the moonlight
A ghost left on my skin
[Chorus]
Of a tattooed heart
(Tattooed heart, tattooed heart)
(Hey) Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(Tattooed heart, tattooed heart)
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(Tattooed heart, tattooed heart)
A ghost left on my skin
Of a tattooed heart
