| I walk the streets uncertain of what I was searching for
|
| She stands alone in silence, I see that she’s been hurt before
|
| And I every step, a chance to lose the past
|
| And breathe again, but we pretend we’re soldiers
|
| Go hard into the wall
|
| Heaven knows we cry
|
| Heaven knows we try
|
| Heaven knows I lied to myself saying I’m better off alone
|
| It’s the only way that I’ve known to get along for this long
|
| Weak heart keeps my head strong
|
| So the man that I pretend to be
|
| Has interfered with destiny
|
| And kept me from what’s best for me
|
| And left me alone
|
| And all the makeup she can buy
|
| Can’t seem to find a way to hide
|
| The way she felt, the days she cried inside
|
| But somehow we carry on
|
| I’ll tell myself just one more drink I’ll be fine
|
| We’ll carry on
|
| She’ll share her feelings with her pillow each night
|
| We’ll carry on
|
| And we’ll pretend that everything is alright
|
| 'Til the sand castles crumble
|
| And the toys all just die
|
| We’ll carry on
|
| Eh, lay in my bed just staring at the pictures on the wall, woah
|
| Oh, I tell myself don’t care but I can hardly sleep at all
|
| 'Cause every song that plays on the radio
|
| Reminds me that you’re gone and that it’s over
|
| My bridge burned and my heart’s on, on
|
| But heaven knows we cry
|
| Heaven knows we try
|
| Heaven knows I lied to myself saying I’m better off alone
|
| It’s the only way that I’ve known to get along for this long
|
| Weak heart keeps my head strong
|
| So the man that I pretend to be
|
| Has interfered with destiny
|
| And kept me from what’s best for me
|
| And left me alone
|

|
| Can’t seem to find a way to hide
|
| The way she felt, the days she cried inside
|
| But somehow we carry on
|
| I’ll tell myself just one more drink I’ll be fine
|
| We’ll carry on
|

|
| We’ll carry on
|
| And we’ll pretend that everything is alright
|
| 'Til the sand castles crumble
|
| And the toys all just die
|
| We’ll carry on
|
| I’ll be fine You’ll never know if you hurt me
|
| Or know that I’m lonely, oh no
|
| Behind my smile
|
| A thousand miles beneath is the strength that I need to carry on
|
| I’ll tell myself just one more drink I’ll be fine.
|
