The Pledge Songtext
von Malrun

These are the bruises you dealt
I′ve taken every punch
Through the years I have tried to abide
And leave the chaos behind

Don't hold my hand, do not come too near
You′ll crush your bones indeed
Don't hold my hand, do not come too near
Your love it has to bleed

The guilt and anger remain
This is what held me down
In your shadow for way too long
I always thought I was wrong


Don't hold my hand, do not come too near
You′ll crush your bones indeed
Don′t hold my hand, do not come too near
Your love it has to bleed

Now for once I start anew
Building something without you
Something genuine and true

Leave me alone
Out of my head
The oblivion within
Leave me alone
In my spine and through my skin
Out of my head
At the edge I'll hold the line

Test me again
See if I care
Crush my own need
Tie you down
