That’s When It Hit Me
That's when it hit me
It shattered my collar bone
I was in love with your world
And the way you shoved it down my throat
I was bleeding just a little
From the cut near my eyebrow
I wanted to tell you that I loved you
But I just couldn't figure out how, ow
That's when it hit me
That's when it hit me, right now
My mouth fell open
At the sight of a violent beauty
I was drooling sweet liquid on the carpet
When you cut right through me
My eyes were black
When you threw me against the wooden door
I was head over heels
I thought I couldn't take anymore, oh
Oh, but that's when it hit me
That's when it hit me once more
And I was bleeding in the bed sheets
When we said goodnight
And I was touching a black and yellow bruise on my thigh
I was running on empty
The big bad sun started to rise, ah
Well, that's when it hit me
That's when it hit me, aye aye
I think it's clear, oh darling
That it hurts to split open my
Deep, deep sleep at 2:30 in the morning
But you broke into my heart
And you gave me no warning
You're a heart attack
And I'm a dead man walking
When you went to sleep
I stayed up starin' at the ceiling
And I want the real thing
With no sugar coating
And no fine print
Just a real wild feeling
And I'm hittin' the floor
I'm rockin' and a-reelin' for you
For you
That's when it hit me
That's when it hit me straight and true
That's when it hit me
Oh, it hit me straight and true
