Never Talk to Me Like That again

Verse 1
It’s like a habit, like a disease
To stain every word carried on the breeze
You throw your stones into my sky
Forgetting we once walked side by side
Hatred’s a fire that gives no light
It only burns what we held tight

Bridge
And if tomorrow ends it all
I’ll leave with nothing left to call
Words that wound and words that blame
Leave scars inside each song the same

Chorus
Never talk to me like that again
Even if your anger won’t give in
Never talk to me like that again
Like I was nothing in your arms back then

Verse 2
We loved each other on mountain highs
But dizziness darkened both our eyes
Your words are blades thrown in the wind
Forgetting hearts are made of skin
I’m not the shadow of your fears
Nor the stone cast out through the years

Bridge
And if tomorrow ends it all
I’ll leave with nothing left to call
Words that wound and words that blame
Leave scars inside each song the same

Chorus
Never talk to me like that again
Even if your anger won’t give in
Never talk to me like that again
Like I was nothing in your arms back then

Verse 3
Look at us now, we disappeared
From saying things we never were
Your shouting echoes through the hall
Like shipwrecks crashing through my thoughts
You had to win, you broke it all
Even our summers in the fall

Bridge
And if tomorrow ends it all
I’ll leave with nothing left to call
Words that wound and words that blame
Leave scars inside each song the same

Chorus
Never talk to me like that again
Even if your anger won’t give in
Never talk to me like that again
Like I was nothing in your arms back then

Outro
I’m no longer chained inside your storms
I turn the key and close the door
Don’t speak to me...
No, never like that anymore.
