Lyrics

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 rings so untrue,

I can't even convince myself.

When I'm speaking, it's the voice of someone else.

Oh, it (G)tears (A)me up.

I (G)try to hold on, but it hurts too much.

I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay.

(D)You can't play on broken strings.

You can't feel anything that your heart don't wanna feel.

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

Oh, the truth hurts.

A (Bm)lie's worse.

(D)How can I give 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 (G)late,

too (Em7)late.

Oh, it (G)tears (A)me up.

I (G)try to hold on, but it hurts too much.

I try to forgive, but it's not enough

to make it all okay.

(D)You can't play on broken strings.

You can't feel

anything that your heart don't wanna feel.

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

Oh, the truth hurts.

A (Bm)lie's worse.

(D)How can I give anymore

when I love you a little less than before?

Oh, we're running through the fire

when there's nothing left to save.

It's like chasing the very last train when we both know it's too late,

too late.

You can't play

(A)Oh, oh, Oh, you know that I love you a little less a little less than before.
