Broken Strings

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 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

When 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

Oh it tears me up

I tried to hold but it hurts too much

I tried to forgive but it’s not enough

To make it all okay

You can’t play our 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

And lies worse

I can’t like it anymore

And 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

You can’t play our 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

And lies worse

I can’t like it anymore

And 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
