Maybe we should switch careers 'Cause baby, you know no one beats our poker faces And when the night ends up in tears Wake up and we blame it all on bein' wasted Oh, this love is fadin' So much we're not sayin' But if these walls could talk (They'd say) "Enough" (They'd say) "Give up" If these walls could talk (They'd say) "You know" (They'd say) "You're fucked" It's not supposed to hurt this much Oh, if these walls could talk They'd tell us to break up (These walls, these walls, these walls) They'd tell us to break up (These walls, these walls, these walls, these walls) They tell us, "Go and face your fears" It's getting worse the longer that we stay together We call it love but hate it here Did we really mean it when we said "forever"? Oh, this love is fadin' So much we're not sayin' But if these walls could talk (They'd say) "Enough" (They'd say) "Give up" (I know) If these walls could talk (They'd say) "You know" (They'd say) "You're fucked" It's not supposed to hurt this much Oh, if these walls could talk They'd tell us to break up (These walls, these walls, these walls) They'd tell us to break up (These walls, these walls, these walls) They'd tell us to break up You don't wanna go (go) Don't wanna stop (stop) Heaven knows I (I) Don't wanna be the one to cut it off But if these walls could talk (They'd say) "Enough" (They'd say) "Give up" (give it up, give it up) If these walls could talk (They'd say) "You know" (They'd say) "You're fucked" (yeah, you know) (Yeah, you know you're fucked) it's not supposed to hurt this much Oh, if these walls could talk They'd tell us to break up (These walls, these walls, these walls) They'd tell us to break up (These walls, these walls, they'd tell us, "Break up")

I'm here And it's in these walls I'm still me But it's in these walls All that we said And all that we did Is right in here! In these walls of mine So I redecorate And I repaint Huge, flowery tapestries Ought to do it. I carefully cover Every inch of before And when I'm done I'm gonna sit down And maybe I'll invite you over.

I feel so numb staring at the shower wall It's begun, the feeling that the end has come And now the water's cold I tried to eat today But the lump in my throat got in the way In this time, I've lost all sense of pride I've called a hundred times If I hear your voice, I'll be fine And I, I can't come alive I want the room to take me under 'Cause I can't help but wonder What if I had one more night for goodbye If you're not here to turn the lights off, I can't sleep These four walls and me I lay in bed, can't seem to leave your side Your pillow's wet from all these tears I've cried I won't say goodbye I tried to smile today Then I realised it's no point anyway In this time, I've lost all sense of pride I've called a thousand times If I hear your voice, I'll be fine And I, I can't come alive I want the room to take me under 'Cause I can't help but wonder What if I had one more night for goodbye If you're not here to turn the lights off, I can't sleep These four walls and me Oh Oh, and I, I can't come alive (can't come alive) I want the room to take me under (oh) 'Cause I can't help but wonder Wonder what if I had one more night for goodbye If you're not here to turn the lights off, I can't sleep These four walls and me

This is so hard for me To find the words to say My thoughts are standing still Captive inside of me All emotions starts to hide And nothing is getting through Watch me fading I'm losing all my instincts Falling into darkness Tear down these walls for me Stop me from going under You are the only one who knows I'm holding back It's not too late for me To keep from sinking further I'm trying to find my way out Tear down these walls for me now So much uncertainty I don't like this feeling I'm sinking like a stone Each time I try to speak There's a voice I'm hearing And it changes everything Watch me crawl from The wreckage of my silence Conversation failing Tear down these walls for me Stop me from going under You are the only one who knows I'm holding back It's not to late for me To keep from sinking further I'm trying to find my way out Tear down these walls Everytime you choose to turn away Is it worth the price you pay Is there someone who will wait for you One more time One more time Watch me fading I'm losing all my instincts Falling into darkness Tear down these walls for me Stop me from going under You are the only one who knows I'm holding back It's not to late for me To keep from sinking further I'm trying to find my way out Tear down these walls for me now Tear down these walls for me It's not too late for me Tear down these walls for me

They tell me I used to be weary That I was nearly fading to black But I don't recall another feeling Before I loved you back They say there's more to my story But those days have all slipped my mind Now the only thing blue in my memory Is the color of your eyes last night What does it matter whether The world wasn't always like this? We are together So, I forget the rest I walked alone, so they tell me But that was pages and pages ago Now I've put my feet where they're supposed to be And they'll all say that's all she wrote What does it matter whether The world wasn't always like this? We are together So, I forget the rest What does it matter whether The world wasn't always like this? We are together So, I forget the rest We are together So, I forget the rest

When I go out and try to walk alone Pretending I don't need a hand to hold I'm hiding, but I know that you can see I know you know me When I am drawing lines in the sand You are the moon that pulls the tide back in I rise and fall, you feel the gravity I know you know me I know you know, I know you know I know you know me I know you know, I know you know I know you know me No matter where the storm is in my mind It'll never be a place that you can't find You hold the candle, oh, you hold the key I know you know me I know you know, I know you know I know you know me I know you know, I know you know I know you know me I know you know, I know you know I know you know me

Guess what, it's the same old song I've been writing all along Never did figure it out I sit down here to work through my fears And that's what I end up singing out loud Oh, but who am I to think I get to solve the mystery Of who and why and what was all that about So, turn off the record if you think I'm getting better I don't wanna let you down I don't wanna let you down I really do wanna tell you something cool But I'm still cleaning up my mess I scream at the clouds and drink after hours But the answers don't come without a return address So, I'm reading my mail and paying my bail From the prison I've been making in my head So, now you can bury me in obscurity 'Cause all I wanna be is a heart on a sleeve All I wanna be is a heart on a sleeve I don't wanna put my pain on a pedestal Wrap it up and sell it to you at the record store I know we all feel the same, I'm just a little louder Same lemons in my bloody hands, turning me sour So, I've been playing at the church of Mary Oliver Yeah, I'm trying to know myself and love all of her I'm finding wonder in the hyacinths And owning up to lies and sins And when I think I'm done I do it again When I think I'm done I do it again and again and again All I'm gonna be, all I'm gonna be All I'm gonna be is a heart on a sleeve All I'm gonna be, all I'm gonna be All I'm gonna be is a heart on a sleeve All I'm gonna be, all I'm gonna be All I'm gonna be is a heart on a sleeve All I'm gonna be, all I'm gonna be All I'm gonna be is a heart on a sleeve

Hold your head up, don't you cry, no Don't you worry, I'll be fine And you can let your heart ache, but don't you let it change The way it's beating, 'cause you'll be needing Every ounce of love I gave you Now the road is rough, but it's here to save you Go on, let it guide you Even when I'm not beside you This world turns you upside down and inside out And it's a longer fall, the higher that you climb When trouble finds you, you can just do what I do Grit your teeth, get through it And wait for the next good time Most things gonna lose their shine Some things string up party lights Every day ain't champagne But it ain't all rain, no This world turns you upside down and inside out And it's a longer fall, the higher that you climb When trouble finds you, you can just do what I do Grit your teeth, get through it And wait for the next good time And at the end of the line You won't be thinking 'bout the hard times At the end of the line, oh You'll be smiling just like I am When trouble finds you, you can just do what I do Grit your teeth, get through it And wait for the next good time Wait for the next good time

When I go out and try to walk alone Pretending I don't need a hand to hold I'm hiding, but I know that you can see I know you know me When I am drawing lines in the sand You are the moon that pulls the tide back in I rise and fall, you feel the gravity I know you know me I know you know, I know you know I know you know me I know you know, I know you know I know you know me No matter where the storm is in my mind It'll never be a place that you can't find You hold the candle, oh, you hold the key I know you know me I know you know, I know you know I know you know me I know you know, I know you know I know you know me I know you know, I know you know I know you know me
