broken strings

Let me hold you

For the last time

It's the last chance to feel again

But you broke me

Now I can't feel anything

When I love you

It's so untrue

I can't even convince myself

When I'm speaking

It's the voice of someone else

Oh it tears me up

I tried to hold on but it hurts too much

I tried to forgive but it's not enough

To make it all okay

You can't play on broken strings

You can't feel anything

That your heart don't want to feel

I can't tell you something that ain't real

Oh the truth hurts

A lie is worse

I can't like it anymore

And I love you a little less than before

[Oh what are we doing

We are turning into dust

Playing house in the ruins of us]

{Running back through the fire

When there's nothing left to save

It's like chasing the very last train

When it's too late} too late

{Oh it tears me up

I tried to hold on but it hurts too much

I tried to forgive but it's not enough

To make it all okay

You can't play on broken strings

You can't feel anything

That your heart don't want to feel

I can't tell you something that ain't real

Oh the truth hurts

A lie's worse

I can't like it anymore

When I love you a little less than before

But we're running through the fire

When there's nothing left to say

It's like chasing the very last train

When we both know it's too late} [too late]

{You can't play on broken strings

You can't feel anything

That your heart don't want to feel

I can't tell you something that ain't real

Oh the truth hurts

A lie's worse

I can't like it anymore

When I love you a little less than before

Oh and I love you a little less than before

Let me hold you for the last time

It's the last chance to feel again
