A Book Nerd's Inner Voices

Silent Radio

Once upon a time, a friend of mine used to call me his Silent Radio, because I would always message him random song lyrics. Music speaks to me much the same way books do, pulling me in to where I feel their emotions, their pain and triumphs in a very real way. So today, these are my lyrics of the moment:





---Bleeding Out by Imagine Dragons---





I'm bleeding out


So if the last thing that I do


Is bring you down


I'll bleed it out for you


So I bare my skin


and I count my sins


andI close my eyes and I take it in


I'm bleeding out


I'm bleeding out for you (for you)





When the day has come


But I've lost my way around


And the seasons stop, and hide beneath the ground


When the sky turns gray


And everything is screaming


I will reach inside


Just to find my heart is beating





Oh you tell me to hold on


Oh you tell me to hold on


But innocence is gone


And what was right is wrong





Cause I'm bleeding out


So if the last thing that I do


Is bring you down


I'll bleed it out for you


So I bare my skin


I count my sins


I close my eyes


I take it in


an I'm bleeding out


I'm bleeding out for you (for you)





When the hour is night


And hopelessness is sinking in


And the wolves all cry


To fill the night with hollering


When your eyes are red


And emptiness is all you know


With the darkness fed


I will be your scarecrow





Oh you tell me to hold on


Oh you tell me to hold on


But innocence is gone


And what was right is wrong





Cause I'm bleeding out


So if the last thing that I do


Is bring you down


I'll bleed it out for you


So I bare my skin


I count my sins


I close my eyes


I take it in


I'm bleeding out


I'm bleeding out for you (for you)





I'm bleeding out for you (for you)


I'm bleeding out for you (for you)


I'm bleeding out for you (for you)


I'm bleeding out for you





Cause I'm bleeding out


So if the last thing that I do


Is bring you down


I'll bleed it out for you


So I bare my skin


I count my sins


I close my eyes


I take it in


And I'm bleeding out


I'm bleeding out for you (for you)
