Becky loved me and I let her Wish I could have loved her better On the day we pulled apart She primed a time-bomb in my heart Now there's a shadow hiding Now there's a horseman riding Lover of all broken things Standing waiting in the wings Sometimes I wonder why I love and let it die Can't give, can't live just to hold back, hold back There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand There's a dark hand over my heart There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand There's a dark hand over my heart You call me fraud and faker You call me user, taker You say I throw you scraps Prove my strength by holding back But I shine my honour brightly Swear my allegiance nightly But through my hands it slips The same old demons paint their lips Sometimes I wonder why I love and let it die I can't give, I can't live just to hold back, hold back There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand There's a dark hand over my heart There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand There's a dark hand over my heart There's a dark hand, there's a dark hand There's a dark hand over my heart Oh there's a dark hand, there's a dark hand There's a dark hand over my heart
