When it kills your heart
But you can’t say no
When it burns you red
But you won’t let go
The deepest cuts well
They heal so slow
I hope they do, God
But what if they don’t?
Take my life
Shoot me in the dark
You’ve really done some damage
You’ve really messed me up
Tell me, why?
There’s a wire in my brain
That doesn’t know the difference
Loving and in pain
Oh, isn’t it the same
‘Cause when the clocks keep rolling
When the days and years have gone
Will I still be here collecting tears for fun?
When it kills your heart
But you can’t say no
When it burns you red
But you won’t let go
The deepest cuts well
They heal so slow
I hope they do, God
But what if they don’t?
Take my years
So how can that be fair?
And if you call me any moment
Said, “I would be right there”
I would take the left
Just beyond the bridge
And I would take it right up ’til the fourth floor
Where it finds
Broken promises
That I’m still trying to fix
Will I always be collecting my tears for fun?
When it kills your heart
But you can’t say no
When it burns you red
But you won’t let go
The deepest cuts well
They heal so slow
I hope they do god
But what if they don’t?
When it kills your heart
But you can’t say no
When it burns you red
But you won’t let go
The deepest cuts well
They heal so slow
I hope they do, God
But what if they don’t?
Yeah, I really hope they do
Yeah, I really want them to, yeah
Yeah, what if they don’t?
What if they don’t?
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Yeah, what if they don’t?
When it kills your heart but
You can’t say no
When it burns you red
But you won’t let go
The deepest cuts well
They heal so slow
I hope they do, God
But what if they don’t?
