[Verse 1]
You walk through my fire
Like you never feel the flame
Every scar that you leave me
Spells out your name
I taste the ashes
Of every word you said
Still I'd lay my armor
Beneath your bed
[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to burn you out
Tried to tear you from my veins
But every time I curse your name
It starts to sound like praise
[Chorus]
I will die before I hate you
Bite the bullet
Break in two
You could tear my world to pieces
I would still stand next to you
If the choice is lose you
Or bleed right through
I will die before I hate you
[Verse 2]
You turn your back like
I’m a stranger in your past
But I’m carved in your history
Like broken glass
You push me under
Watch me sink into the black
But I’d give you my last breath
If you asked for it back
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah
I’ve screamed into the dark
Swore I’d cut you from my soul
But every time I draw that line
You’re written in the stone
[Chorus]
I will die before I hate you
Bite the bullet
Break in two
You could tear my world to pieces
I would still stand next to you
If the choice is lose you
Or bleed right through
I will die before I hate you
[Bridge]
Take my pulse
Take my pride
Take the heartbeat from my side
You can wreck me
You can wreck me
But you can’t make love die (no way)
If there’s one last thing
I can still refuse
I’ll give up my life
Before I give up on you
[Chorus]
I will die before I hate you
Bite the bullet
Break in two
You could tear my world to pieces
I would still stand next to you
If the choice is lose you
Or bleed right through
I will die before I hate you
Yeah
If the choice is lose you
Or bleed right through
I will die before I hate you
