Lyrics
[Verse 1]
How do we end up like this, under a burning sky?
Some things are better unsaid, it's easier to lie
I'm pulling, but my heart is on the wire
Don't need a thousand guards to lock me in
Doesn't take a fool to start a fire
A solitary spark and wars begin
[Verse 2]
Say it's only words
And that it will get easier with time
Nothing's only words
That's how hearts gets hurt
[Verse 3]
I can't, I can't, I can't stop hearing
All the words we said
I can't stop hearing all the words you said
I can't stop hearing all the words you said
I can't stop hearing words
That's how hearts get hurt
[Verse 4]
How did it all come to this? We started off as friends
It makes it easy to leave if we're strangers by the end
I'm pulling, but my heart is on the wire
Don't need a thousand guards to lock me in
Doesn't take a fool to start a fire
A solitary spark and wars begin
[Verse 5]
You say it's only words
And that it will get easier with time
Nothing's only words
That's how hearts gets hurt
[Verse 6]
I can't, I can't, I can't stop hearing
All the words we said
I can't stop hearing all the words we said
I can't stop hearing all the words we said
I can't stop hearing the words
That's how hearts get hurt
[Verse 7]
You say it's only words
And that it will get easier with time
Nothing's only words
That's how hearts get hurt
You say it's only words
It doesn't matter if they're yours or mine
Nothing's only words
That's how hearts get hurt
[Verse 8]
I can't, I can't, I can't stop hearing
All the words we said
I can't stop hearing all the words we said
I can't stop hearing all the words we said
Let's stop hearing all the words we said
I can't stop hearing all the words we said
Let's stop using words
That's how hearts get hurt
