An empty room can be so deafening
the silence makes you wanna scream
it drives you crazy
i chased away the shadows of your name
and burned the picture in the frame
but i couldn't save me
and how could we quit something
we never really tried
well you still can't tell me why

we built it up
to watch it fall
like we meant nothing at all
i gave and gave
the best of me
but couldn't give you what you need
you walked away
you stole my life
just to find what you're looking for
but no matter how i try
i can't hate you anymore


your not the person that you used to be
the one i want who wanted me
and thats a shame but
theres only so many tears that you can cry
before i drain the light right from your eye
and i cant go on that way
so im letting go of everything we were
it doesnt mean it doesnt hurt

we built it up
to watch it fall
like we meant nothing at all
i gave and gave
the best of me
but couldnt give you what you need
you walked away
you stole my life
just to find what you're looking for
but no matter how i try
i cant hate you anymore

sometimes you hold so tight
it slips right through your hands
will i ever understand

we built it up
to watch it fall
like we meant nothing at all
i gave and gave
the best of me
but couldn't give you what you need
you walked away
you stole my life
just to find what you're looking for
but no matter how i try
i can't hate you anymore
i can't hate you anymore (2x)
