Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I heard that sound
When the walls came down
I was thinkin' about you, about you
When my skin grows old
When my breath turns cold
I'll be thinkin' about you
[Verse 2]
Seconds from my heart
A bullet from the dark
Helpless, I surrender
Shackled by your love
Holding you like this
Poison on your lips
Only when it's over
The silence hits so hard
[Verse 3]
'Cause it was almost love, it was almost love
And it was almost love, it was almost love
[Verse 4]
When I heard that sound
When the walls came down
I was thinkin' about you, about you
When my skin grows old
When my breath turns cold
I'll be thinkin' about you, about you
[Verse 5]
When I run out of air to breathe
It's your ghost I see
I'll be thinkin' about you
[Verse 6]
'Cause it was almost love, it was almost
[Verse 7]
We bleed ourselves in vain
How tragic is this game?
Turn around, I'm holdin' onto someone
But your love is gone
Carryin' the load
In ways that feel like stone
Knowing that we almost fell so far, though
It's hard to tell
[Verse 8]
And we came so close, it was almost love
It was almost love, it was almost love
[Verse 9]
When I heard that sound (Heard that sound)
When the walls came down (Walls came down)
I was thinkin' about you, about you
When my skin grows old (Skin grows old)
When my breath turns cold (Breath, cold)
I'll be thinkin' about you, about you
[Verse 10]
When I run out of air to breathe
It's your ghost I see
I'll be thinkin' about you
[Verse 11]
Well, I reached out for your hand, yeah
When the walls were caving in
Well, I'll see you on the other side
We can try all over again
[Verse 12]
When I heard that sound (Heard that sound)
When the walls came down (Walls came down)
I was thinkin' about you (Yeah), about you
When my skin grows old (Skin grows old)
When my breath turns cold (Breath turns cold)
I'll be thinkin' about you (Yeah), about you
[Verse 13]
When I run out of air to breathe
It's your ghost I see
I'll be thinkin' about you (About you)
[Verse 14]
'Cause it was almost love, it was almost love
It was almost love, it was almost love
[Verse 15]
Thank you
