lyrics

Maybe all that glitters ain’t gold
Maybe this flame’s too hot for us to hold
You wanted me to promise a lifetime
But all that I needed was some time
Then you took it all

And it shatters me
Like a thousand soldiers
Standing on my hands
When I was trying to hold you

And it feels like

You’ve taken the air from my lungs
Told me to speak but cut my tongue
And it’s hard to breathe when you’re hurt by the one that you love
You told me I’m the only one
I turn around I’m facing your gun
But you tell me to hold on
To hold on

You left me to dry in the cold
After all the hero stories that you told
You wanted me to lay my life out
Like a book for you to read
Then you tore it all

And it shatters me
Like a thousand soldiers
Standing on my hands
When I was trying to hold you

And it feels like

You’ve taken the air from my lungs
Told me to speak but cut my tongue
And it’s hard to breathe when you’re hurt by the one that you love
You told me I’m the only one
I turn around I’m facing your gun
But you tell me to hold on
To hold on

And it shatters me
Like a thousand soldiers
Standing on my hands
When I was trying to hold you

And it feels like
You’ve taken the air from my lungs
Told me to speak but cut my tongue
And it’s hard to breathe when you’re hurt by the one that you love
You told me I’m the only one
I turn around I’m facing your gun
But you tell me to hold on
To hold on
