Gotta Stop the Bleed

So many people out there in this world
no one to care for them, no one to love
you see them every day they stand next to you
they need some love, they just need someone

Standing in the dark wondering where you are
waiting for a familiar sound the one when you get home
will this finally be the last straw, the end of us, i don't know
this isn't the way or what i thought our love would grow

Feeding on lonely nights and something's feeding on my despair
can't help whats building up inside because you leave it there
no words need to be said, just one look and we know it's there
this love never had a chance, this love is lost without repair

Oh i tried to tell you, but you didn't want to listen
i tried to seal this leak we created, tried to keep it real
never could understood the way you're thinking
and the way your words were always peaking

You're never calm when you talk to me, baby
always in an argument, you tend to redirect it
so tired of you putting the blame on me, yes i am

And we get a moment, i try to solve the situation
i try to hold your hand, say something sweet to you
but you know what you do, you just pull away

So why do you stay with me
cant you see this ain't working out
this love doesn't have what it takes
what you got is full of holes
so full heart break, honey

I just can't go on, living this way you know
the days are lonely and nights are too long
waiting to hear if you are coming home
someone has to take a stand you see

Cuz i gotta mend this heart
Darling i gotta stop the bleed

I need, yes i need

Someone to hold my hand
take me to the promise land

Hold me up when i fall
when they're out, they will call

To tell, to tell me they love me
that I'm, ya that I'm their only one
that they can't wait to get home to me
and hold me through the night

I just can't go on, living this way you know
the days are lonely and nights are too long

Cuz i gotta mend this heart
ya Darling,  i gotta stop the bleed

I need, yes i need

Someone to hold my hand
take me to the promise land

Cuz i gotta mend this heart
Honey, i gotta stop the bleed

So many people out there in this world
no one to care for them, no one to love

Feeding on lonely nights
and something's feeding on my despair
can't help whats building up inside
because you leave it there

No words need to be said
just one look and we know it's there
this love never had a chance
this love is lost without repair

Just gotta mend this heart
just gotta stop this bleed

Just gotta believe that i can

Just gotta mend my heart
just gotta stop the bleed

Just gotta believe that i can
Love again, ya love again

Please someone stop this bleed
please someone stop this bleed
please someone stop this bleed
