[Pre-Chorus] 
I filled a jar with everything I gave
Sugar, songs, and light,
you spat your sulfur in my love and watched 
That it catch the night.
You think you’re safe in hollow laughs
So used you barely care,
but when the glass breaks in your hands
I hope you feel me there.

[Chorus] 
Pain. It’s what you gave me.
Your love — nails, a line of spikes.
What else should I expect? I’ll wait — wait — wait.
You’ll learn too late, and then you’ll surrender

I'll wait!, Wait!, Wait! 
I'll wait!, Wait!, Wait!

[Verse 2] 
Between your gestures, all your storms
I learned to sew my seams
You hooked me on a promise made
Of cigarette smoke and dreams
Little one, you’ll know how much it hurts 
The empty echoes roar
the silence screams the loudest
When I’m not there anymore.

[Pre-Chorus] 
You’re used to throwing names away
Like matches in a flood,
but sweetness crystallizes
And honey turns to blood.
So keep your coal and bitter jokes
I kept the fragile flame,
and one day in the quiet hours
You’ll choke on my name.

[Chorus] 
Pain. It’s what you gave me.
Your love — nails, a line of spikes.
What else should I expect? I’ll wait — wait — wait.
You’ll learn too late, and then you’ll surrender

I'll wait!, Wait!, Wait! 
I'll wait!, Wait!, Wait!

[guitar solo] 
... 
... 
... 
[Bridge] 
Today I won’t sigh,
I’ll carve the truth in light.
You will taste the paradox
Velvet wrapped in spite.
I gave you nectar
You returned me smoke;
now count the hollow moments
Watch the art of being broke.
... 
You’ll feel the lack I leave behind, a bruise that won’t forget.
You’ll call my name like rain, but I won’t answer yet.

[Chorus] 
Pain. It’s what you gave me.
Your love — nails, a line of spikes.
What else should I expect? I’ll wait — wait — wait.
You’ll learn too late, and then you’ll surrender

I'll wait!, Wait!, Wait! 
I'll wait!, Wait!, Wait!
I'll wait!

[lullaby] ... ... ... [Verse 1] Today I’m done with holding back No more polite goodbyes I’ll lay the poison on your skin You’ll taste me in your lies. You taught me how to dance through storms You painted me a dream, A vague, soft silhouette of what You promised on the seam. [Pre-Chorus] I filled a jar with everything I gave Sugar, songs, and light, you spat your sulfur in my love and watched That it catch the night. You think you’re safe in hollow laughs So used you barely care, but when the glass breaks in your hands I hope you feel me there. [Chorus] Pain. It’s what you gave me.
