Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[PreChorus]
Oh, it tears me up
I tried to hold on but it hurts too much
I tried to forgive but it's not enough
To make it all okay
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before?
[Verse 3]
Oh, what are we doing?
We are turning into dust
Playing house in the ruins of us
[Verse 4]
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, too late
[PreChorus]
Oh, it tears me up
I tried to hold on but it hurts too much
I tried to forgive but it's not enough
To make it all okay
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before?
[Bridge]
But 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
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse
So how can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before?
[Outro]
Oh, you know that I love you a little less
Than before
Let me hold you for the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
