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 open
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 open
Dreams are lost and
Hearts are broken
I know what your feeling
lt's hard to believe in
Someone someone
Who's not there
I know that your 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 open
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 open
Dreams are lost and
Hearts are broken
