Tourniquet Lyrics

Take this love

I will make you
I will starve the pain within
I will crave you
I will learn to hate again

I will drain you
I will make you whole again
I will blame you
I will lay beside the dead
'Cause I don't want to live inside this hell

Tame the fire from within
You won't break me
Love will tie the tourniquet
And suffocate me

I won't save you
I won't starve the hope within
I won't change you
I won't fight the pain within

I won't fail you
I won't let your light descend
I won't play you
I won't face your fate again
'Cause I am born to live inside this hell

Tame the fire from within
You won't break me
Love will tie the tourniquet
And suffocate me

Tame the fire from within
You won't take me
Love will tie the tourniquet
And suffocate me

Let the calm rise up
So graceful
Every wasted word
So faithful

Tame the fire from within
You won't break me
Love will tie the tourniquet
And suffocate me

Tame the fire from within
You won't take me
Love will tie the tourniquet
And suffocate me

Suffocate me
Suffocate me

What is the Meaning of Tourniquet?

This powerful track delves into the complexities of a toxic relationship. The lyrics suggest a struggle between love and pain, where the protagonist is caught in a cycle of emotional torment. The repeated use of the word 'tourniquet' symbolizes an attempt to stop the bleeding or pain, but it also risks suffocation, mirroring how love can be both healing and suffocating in an unhealthy relationship. Despite enduring such hardship, there's a sense of resilience and determination not to let this situation break or define them. The song ultimately paints a picture of someone trying to navigate through their personal hell, seeking salvation amidst despair. #ToxicLove #EmotionalStruggle #Resilience
