Dancing on a tightrope Trying to keep my eyes closed I don't wanna hurt again Such a good pretender Can't even remember When I didn't hold things in Lying awake trying to make my brain slow down (How can we, how can we?) We say we're ok but we're just afraid of the fallout How can we, how can we heal our wounds When they keep ripping open? How can we, how can we hear the truth When it's never been spoken? How can we, how can we heal When the love is what's keeping us broken? (How can we, how can we?) I don't wanna lose you And you don't wanna lose me That much we know for sure So how'd we end up like this? We're dancing in the silence Hearts bleeding on the floor Holding you close but I know We both feel the distance (How can we, how can we?) We keep holding on 'Cause all could be lost in an instant So how can we, how can we heal our wounds When they keep ripping open? How can we, how can we hear the truth When it's never been spoken? How can we, how can we heal How can we, how can we heal When the love is what's keeping us broken? Tell me that you want me Tell me that you need me, oh Tell me that you love me Say you'll never leave me, oh But how can we, how can we heal our wounds When they keep ripping open? How can we, how can we hear the truth When it's never been spoken? How can we, how can we heal our wounds When they keep ripping open? How can we, how can we hear the truth when it's Never been spoken? How can we, how can we heal How can we, how can we heal When the love is what's keeping us broken? (How can we, how can we) Dancing on a tightrope Trying to keep my eyes closed
