i don't know anyone who isn't haunted
by someone or something.
and whether we try to slice the pain away
with a scalpel or shove it in the back of a closet
our efforts usually fail.
so the only way we can clear out the cobwebs
is to turn a new page
or put the old story to rest...
finally, finally to rest. 
i can't waste time so give it a moment
i realize nothing's broken
no need to worry about everything i've done
live every second like it was my last one
don't look back got a new direction
i loved you once, needed protection
you're still a part of everything i do
you're on my heart just like a tattoo
just like a tattoo, i'll always have you
when i thought he was mine
she caught him by the mouth
i waited eight long months
she finally set him free
i told him, i can't lie
he was the only one for me
two weeks and we had caught on fire
she's got it out for me
but i wear the biggest smile 
this is the bottom line, it's true
i gave my all for you
now my heart's in two
and i can't find the other half
it's like i'm walking on broken glass
better believe i bled
it's a call i'll never get
i'm sorry, i'm just thinking
of the right words to say
i know they don't sound
the way i planned them to be
but if you'll wait around awhile
i'll make you fall for me
i promise, i promise you
you didn't love her.
you just didn't want to be alone.
or maybe, maybe she was good for your ego.
or, or maybe she made you feel better
about your miserable life.
but you didn't love her.
because you don't destroy the person you love.
there was a time when i was so afraid
i thought i'd reached the end
baby that was then
but i am made of more than my yesterdays
this is my now
and i am breathing in the moment
i wonder, how am i supposed to feel
when you're not here
cause i burned every bridge i ever built
when you were here
i still try holding on to silly things
i never learn
oh why all the possibilities
i'm sure you've heard
this is what you get
when you let your heart win
when you love someone
and they break your heart
don't give up on love
have faith, restart
just hold on, hold on
cause an empty room
can be so loud
there's too many tears
to drown them out
so hold on, hold on
have you ever heard a word?
rather be lonely in love
than alive with you and dead
have you ever heard a word?
hear me out this time
where does one start
to pick up the pieces
of a gasoline heart
when all she has is driving away?
the thing about addiction is that
it never ends well, because eventually,
whatever it is that was getting us high
stops feeling good and starts to hurt.
still, they say you don't kick the habit
until you hit rock bottom,
but how do you know when you're there?
because no matter how badly a thing is hurting us,
sometimes letting it go hurts even worse.
if i should die before i wake
it's cause you took my breath away
losing you is like
living in a world with no air
i'm here alone didn't want to leave
my heart won't move, it's incomplete
wish there was a way
that i could make you understand
and oh, oh how could you do it?
oh i, i never saw it coming
oh, oh i need the ending
so why can't you stay
just long enough to explain?
and when it rains
will you always find an escape?
just running away from
all the ones who love you
from everything
you left without a single word
not even sorry
it might've hurt worse to hear you say
"i'm leaving, goodbye"
but your smile still makes my heart sing
another sad song
i can't forget it, won't regret it
cause i'm still in love with you
is this the end of everything we know?
this is the end of everything i am
is anybody out there?
hello, hello?
broken hearts like promises
are left for lesser knowns
is anybody out there?
alone, alone
because the coldest winters thrive
forgive and forget.
that's what they say.
it's good advice,
but it's not very practical.
when someone hurts us,
we want to hurt them back.
when someone wrongs us,
we want to be right.
without forgiveness,
old scores never settle.
old wounds never heal,
and the most we can hope for
is that someday,
we'll be lucky enough to forget.
but somehow i'm still alive inside
you took my breath but i survived
i don't know how but i don't even care
you were finished long before
we had even seen the start
why don't you stand up
be a man about it?
fight with your bare hands
about it now
i never wanted to say this
you never wanted to stay
well did you?
i put my faith in you, so much faith
and then you just threw it away
i don't know what hurts worse baby
seeing you with him or being alone
on my own
i know he doesn't love you baby
not like i did
oh, what's the point
you're not listening anyway
i'd take another chance
take a fall, take a shot for you
and i need you like a heart needs a beat
but that's nothing new
i loved you with a fire red
now it's turning blue
and you say sorry like the angel
heaven let me think was you
but i'm afraid it's too late to apologize
