[Intro]

Hey


[Verse 1]

Can't seem to let it go, you spent too many nights

Staring at these walls through bloodshot eyes

You say it's hard, I know, he took your will to fight

And now you're in denial, oh, oh


[Pre-Chorus]

You're constantly reminded by the memories

In all the broken picture frames

There's no justification when he goes and blots the sun out

With the colors of his rage, oh


[Chorus]

He says, "I'm sorry"

While he's ripping you apart at the seams

What does it feel like

When nobody can hear when you scream?


[Verse 2]

You say you love him, he shattered your rose-colored glasses

And left you seeing in black and blue

And now you're broken, 'cause true love doesn't leave you

Feeling empty with a heart so bruised


[Pre-Chorus]

Now you're constantly reminded by the scars he left

That you gave him everything

So you sing your cares away while you're trapped in a script

That doesn't ever seem to change

It's not gonna change


[Chorus]

He says, "I'm sorry"

While he's ripping you apart at the seams

What does it feel like

When nobody can hear when you scream?

And they don't know what I know

But your face tells me no lies

It's too late, he won't change

Look around, you're playing with fire


[Bridge]

Ooh, oh

Now you're seeing in red, so you close your eyes

To you push it down, don't push it down

Said, "It's all in your head", gotta get you out

I won't let you down, won't let you down

Now you're seeing in red, so you close your eyes

To push it down, don't push it down

I won't let you down

Gotta get you out


[Chorus]

He says, "I'm sorry"

While he's ripping you apart at the seams

What does it feel like

When nobody can hear when you scream?

And they don't know what I know

But your face tells me no lies

Please tell me why you're still

Still playing with fire
