Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tell me the wars you're fightin'
Behind the smile you're hidin'
All of the things I know you want to say
We tried our best to find us
But there are no lights to guide us
I can't sleep beside a stranger now
And piece by piece we fall apart
With every beat slows down my heart
[Verse 2]
So I'll just say what you won't say
And I'll take the blame, if it's for your sake
No turnin' back on what you can't save
So far gone
Yeah, we're so far gone
[Verse 3]
I've tried hard to remember
This prison cell used to be a shelter
Now we're just looking for the best way out
And I can't fight you anymore
You're already one foot out the door
[Verse 4]
So I'll just say what you won't say
And I'll take the blame, if it's for your sake
No turnin' back on what you can't save
So far gone
Yeah, we're so far gone
[Verse 5]
And this is the face of lettin' go
And these are the things we already know
So I'll just say what you won't say
And I'll take the blame, if it's for your sake
No turnin' back on what you can't save
[Verse 6]
So I'll just say what you won't say
And I'll take the blame, if it's for your sake
No turnin' back on what you can't save
So far gone
Yeah, we're so far gone
Yeah, we're so far gone
So I'll just say what you won't say
