lyrics

I gave you my word
That my heart would start
beating again,
But I couldn’t pretend.

And if with my last breath,
Every promise I could defend,
Could we still make amends?

Well it’s about time to lose
all the things we knew.
How could I be prepared
to take it all away from you?
Well I could.

Heaven can burn before my eyes now
When I’m watching you hurt before my eyes.
And heaven can burn before my eyes now
When I’m watching you hurt before my eyes now.

I gave you my word that my heart
Would be in it.
Well, I thought we could win it.

And if with my last breath,
I could rise from the ashes I have made,
Could we ever be saved?

Well it’s about time to lose
all those things we knew
Well how could I be prepared
to take it all away from you?
Well I could.

CHORUS

You want me to console you.
You ask me to still hold you.
It’s not that I don’t want to,
I’ve done more harm than
I could do. And you say,
Well it’s better off this way.

CHORUS

I gave you my word that
My heart would start beating again,
But I couldn’t pretend.
