I thought that I would see her
Sleeping undercover
I thought that I would see her
Like a birthday mirror

Not like a long lost lover
Not like a long lost mother
Not like a long lost brother
With his spirit intact

And all those teenage birthdays
Sleeping in your shoes
And I was blood red thirsty
I thought that we would marry
And then at the house of boredom
I listen hard to you
And then you came back last night
With your blood red shoes

And it hit, hit, hit me down, hard
And it hit, hit, hit me down, hard

Right back the night after night
Sitting in TV light
Soak up your spirit to fight
The demons in my shoes
And in the fabric of me
In my skin and in my body
In my heart and in my sadness
I came hard to you

And it hit, hit, hit me down, hard
And it hit, hit, hit me down, hard
And it hit, hit, hit me down, hard (so badly hard, hit so badly hard)

And now I know you're with me
I know that you don't judge me
I won't forget the anger
I want to hit them hard
So there's this song I'm singing
To keep this long, lost feeling
I know that you will be back
With your blood red shoes

And you hit me hard (hit so badly hard, hit so badly hard)
And you hit me hard (hit so badly hard, hit so badly hard)
And you hit me hard (hit so badly hard, hit so badly hard)
And you hit me hard (hit so badly hard, hit so badly hard)
Hard
