Description
This is a song about the awful places that love takes us, for being the positive emotion we always think it is. It's about finally giving up and letting go.
Lyrics
I can't believe love brought us here This place is so damn cold And all the pain that I once feared Is underlined in bold There is a match inside this heart Of mine that won't ignite If I can't breathe without you, girl I guess you win, you're right. There's no way that I can tolerate all of this suffering inside My heart's rusted and it's overweight With this burden of goodbye. I set out just to write a song To help me through the week This blood and paper does no wrong But my chest feels antique There is a breath inside these lungs That's dying just to shout If you can't live inside my heart Why won't you just get out? There's no way that I can tolerate all of this suffering inside My heart's rusted and it's overweight With this burden of goodbye. "It's not you, it's me" Received on a tiny candy heart But every time I think of you I'm right back at the start (It's not you it's me, we're just not meant to be) But every time I think of you. I can't believe love brought us here, This place is so damn cold And all the pain that I once feared...is real. There's no way that I can tolerate all of this suffering inside My heart's rusted and it's overweight With this burden of goodbye With this burden of goodbye Goodbye.
