Lyin' next to you
|
Wishing I could disappear...aay
|
Let you fall asleep
|
And vanish out into thin air..aay
|
|
It's the elephant in the room
|
And we pretend that we don't see it.
|
It's the avalanche that looms above our heads.
|
And we don't believe it.
|
|
Tryin' to be perfect
|
Tryin' not to let you down...ooww
|
Honesty is honestly the hardest thing for me right now...yeah
|
while the floors underneath our feet are crumbling
|
The walls we built together tumblin'
|
I still stand here holdin' up the roof
|
Cause it's easier than telling the truth.
|
|
I still keep your photographs
|
I remember how we used to laugh
|
I can keep on losin' sleep
|
If you're okay with being torn in half.
|
|
It's the elephant in the room
|
And we pretend that we don't see it.
|
It's an avalanche that looms above our heads
|
But we don't believe it.
|
|
Tryin' to be perfect, tryin' not to let you down...oww
|
Honesty is honestly the hardest thing for me right now...yeah
|
While the floors underneath our feet are crumblin'
|
The walls we built together tumblin'
|
I still stand here holdin' up the roof
|
Cause it's easier than telling the truth.
|
|
Stop ignoring that our hearts are mourning
|
And let the rain come in.
|
Stop pretending that it's not ending
|
And let the end begin.
|
|
Oh yeah...
|
|
Tryin' to be perfect, tryin' not to let you down...yeah
|
Honesty is honestly the hardest thing for me right now...yeah
|
While the floors underneath our feet are crumblin'
|
The walls we built together tumblin'
|
I still stand here holdin' up the roof
|
Cause it's easier than telling the truth.
|
|
It's easier than telling the truth...
