Lyrics
[Intro]
I always like the dark and quiet places
Hmm
Maybe that's why I stayed near to you
And I know what it is to hold my breath, and
Yeah
Yeah, I know what it is to hurt for you
Oh
[Chorus]
When did "sorry" start to lose its meaning?
Like the colour on your faded jeans, and
When "I love you" starts to lose its power
You only say it on the nineteenth hour
When we're sat in the silence
Oh, and the room goes quiet
I've got nothing left
When "I love you" starts to lose its meaning
You only say it just to cover up the bleeding
[Verse 1]
Part of me doesn't care if you really mean it
'Cause all I wanna do is have something to believe in
Oh, and
And it's tragic, but it's true, 'cause
I'm an optimist for you, and
What else am I to do? Yeah
You know I'll hold on to you
You know I'll hold on to you
Oh-oh-oh, but
[Chorus]
When did "sorry" start to lose its meaning?
Like the colour on your faded jeans, and
When "I love you" starts to lose its power
You only say it on the nineteenth hour
When we're sat in the silence
Oh, and the room goes quiet
I've got nothing left
When "I love you" starts to lose its meaning
You only say it just to cover up the bleeding
[PostChorus]
You only say it just to cover up the bleeding
Right now I wish that you would say it 'cause you mean it
You only say it just to cover up the bleeding
You only say it, you only say it
[Outro]
When we're sat in the silence
Oh, and the room goes quiet
I've got nothing left
When "I love you" starts to lose its meaning
You only say it just to cover up the bleeding
