Tourniquet Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I tried to kill my pain
But only brought more (So much more)
I lay dying and I'm pouring
Crimson regret and betrayal
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm dying (Dying)
Praying (Praying)
Bleeding (Bleeding)
And screaming
Am I too lost
To be saved?
Am I too lost?
[Chorus]
My God, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation (Oh-oh-oh)
My God, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation (Oh-oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
Do you remember me?
Lost for so long
Will you be on the other side
Or will you forget me?
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm dying (Dying)
Praying (Praying)
Bleeding (Bleeding)
And screaming
Am I too lost
To be saved?
Am I too lost?
[Chorus]
My God, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation (Oh-oh-oh)
My God, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation (Oh-oh-oh)
[Bridge]
(Return to me salvation)
(Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh)
(I want to die)
[Chorus]
My God, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation (Oh-oh-oh)
My God, my tourniquet
Return to me salvation (Oh-oh-oh)
[Post-Chorus]
My wounds cry for the grave
My soul cries for deliverance
Will I be denied, Christ? (Christ)
Tourniquet, my suicide
(Return to me salvation)
(Return to me salvation)
[Instrumental Outro]
