When it kills your heart but you can't say no
When it burns you red but you won't let go
The deepest cuts, well, they heal so slow
I hope they do, God, but what if they don't?

Take my life
Shoot me in the dark
You've really done some damage
You've really messed me up
Tell me why
There's a wire in my brain
That doesn't know the difference
In lovin' and in pain
Oh, isn't it the same?

But when the clocks keep rolling
When the days and years have gone
Will I still be here collecting tears for fun?

When it kills your heart but you can't say no
When it burns you red but you won't let go
The deepest cuts, well, they heal so slow
I hope they do, God, but what if they don't?

Took my years (you took my years), yeah
So, how can I be fair? (How can I be fair?)
And if you called me any moment (yeah, if you called me right now)
Said I would be right there (you know that I would be there)
I would take the left (oh, I would take the left, yeah)
Just beyond the bridge (how many times will I take it?)
And I would take it right up to the fourth floor (where you'd be waiting)
Where I'd find all broken promises, oh
That I'm still tryna fix

Will I always be collecting my tears for fun?

When it kills your heart but you can't say no
When it burns you red but you won't let go
The deepest cuts, well, they heal so slow
I hope they do, God, but what if they don't?
When it kills your heart but you can't say no

Mm (don't)
Oh, yeah (don't)
Yeah, I really hope they do, yeah, I really want them to, but (don't)
Oh, yeah, what if they don't?
Oh, what if they don't?
Oh, what happens to me then?
Oh, yeah, what if they don't?
I hope they do, God

When it kills your heart but you can't say no
When it burns you red but you won't let go
The deepest cuts, well, they heal so slow
