| Can hold my breath, only for a little while
|
| 'Til reality starts sinking in
|
| Once again, I'm settling for second best
|
| Turn the page and skip to the end
|
| To where I swore that I would try
|
| Since the last time I crossed that line
|
| In the back of my mind, I know
|
| It only hurts when your eyes are open
|
| Lies get tossed and truth is spoken
|
| It only hurts when that door gets opened
|
| Dreams are lost and hearts are broken
|
| Miles away, promise from a burning bed
|
| Two worlds should never collide
|
| One word would end it if you ever heard
|
| Tear the page out that reminds me
|
| When I swore that I'd be strong
|
| Now, the next time has come and gone
|
| Well, maybe I'm wrong, I know
|
| It only hurts when your eyes are open
|
| Lies get tossed and truth is spoken
|
| It only hurts when that door gets opened
|
| Dreams are lost and hearts are broken
|
| I know what you're feeling
|
| It's hard to believe in someone
|
| Someone who's not there
|
| I know that you're waiting
|
| 'Cause love is worth saving
|
| But only for so long, so long, so long
|
| I swore that I would try
|
| Since the last time
|
| The last time
|
| It only hurts when your eyes are open
|
| Lies get tossed and truth is spoken
|
| It only hurts when that door gets opened
|
| Dreams are lost and hearts are broken
|
| It only hurts when your eyes are open
|
| Lies get tossed and truth is spoken
|
| It only hurts when that door gets opened
|
| Dreams are lost and hearts are broken |
