I’m going to be honest with you
For the first time in a while
I’m frightened and I can’t stand the silence
But I can’t speak up

I loved you and I love you still
Staring at my windowsill
Wondering if you’d take me back
But I am too scared to ask

How do you break away from somebody you love?
How do you rip their heart apart and forget?
How do you write a song when your heart is breaking?
How do you silence the song that brought you back to life?

You saved my life once
And you didn’t even know you did
Your sweet smile, your soft lips
Your kind words that I don’t deserve

But I’m worried about the pain
That could hurt even more if I stayed
My bleeding arms, my bleeding heart
That only you could fix

How do you break away from somebody you love?
How do you rip their heart apart and forget?
How do you write a song when your heart is breaking?
How do you silence the song that brought you back to life?

Why do I need you here so,
But I need you to go so,
What am I supposed to do

Your arms holding me tightly
Your shy eyes so gently
I could cry

How do you break away from somebody you love?
How do you rip their heart apart and forget?
How do you write a song when your heart is breaking?
How do you silence the song that brought you back to life?
How do you break away from somebody you love?
How do you rip their heart apart and forget?
How do you write a song when your heart is breaking?
How do you silence the song that brought you back to life?
