Lyrics

[00:15.000] That's when it hit me
[00:18.000] and shattered my collar bone
[00:22.000] I was in love with your world
[00:25.000] and the way you shoved it down my throat
[00:31.000] I was bleeding just a little from the cut near my eyebrow
[00:39.000] I wanted to tell ya that I loved you
[00:41.000] but I just couldn't figure out how
[00:47.000] That's when it hit me
[00:49.000] That's when it hit me: right now
[00:57.000] My mouth fell open at the sight of a violent beauty
[01:01.000] I was drooling sweet liquid on the carpet when you cut right through me
[01:09.000] My eyes were black when you through me against the wooden door
[01:17.000] I was head over heels, I thought I couldn't take any more
[01:23.000] Oh but that's when it hit me
[01:27.000] That's when it hit me once more
[01:33.000] And I was bleeding in the bed sheets, when she said good night
[01:36.000] And I was touching a black and yellow bruise on my thigh
[01:40.000] I was running on empty, the big bad sun started to rise
[01:52.000] Well, that's when it hit
[01:55.000] That's when it hit me, aye aye
[02:00.000] I think it's clear, oh darling
[02:01.000] That it hurts to split open my
[02:03.000] Deep deep sleep at 2:30 in the morning
[02:07.000] But you broke into my heart
[02:09.000] And you gave me no warning
[02:10.000] You're a heart attack
[02:12.000] And I'm a dead man waling
[02:14.000] When you went to sleep
[02:16.000] I stayed up starin' at the ceiling
[02:18.000] And I want the real thing
[02:20.000] With no sugar coating
[02:22.000] And no fine print
[02:23.000] Just a real wild feeling
[02:26.000] And I'm hittin' the floor
[02:28.000] I'm rockin' and a reelin' for you
[02:34.000] For you
[02:38.000] That's when it hit me
[02:40.000] That's when it hit me straight and true
[02:44.000] That's when it hit me
[02:47.000] Oh, it hit me straight and true
