Collar from Sleeping Mind by Leigham Fitzpatrick

You've hurt me good and you've hurt me bad
Let's pretend it doesn't make us sad
And I'll keep wearing this collar of leather
If you keep saying you'll try to be better
Try to be better

'Cause I wear you like a coat
You keep away the cold
And I suffocate in your folds

You've taught me to be your lover
You've taught me to be your friend
You've taught me how to take care of you
You've taught me how to be scared

But I wear you like a coat
You keep away the cold
And I suffocate in your folds
Yes I wear you like a coat
You keep away the cold
And I suffocate in your folds

You know, I'd rather be dead than scared
I'd rather be alone than dead
And I'll keep wearing this collar of leather
So I never accept try to be better again

'Cause I wore you like a coat
Though you were full of holes
And I suffocated in those folds
Yes I wore you like a coat
Though you were full of holes
And I suffocated in your folds
