[Verse 1]

Of all those words you could have chose

You just sat there silent

Of all those things I should have known

You just smiled and held your breath

You said these words would never save you

You said my lines would never change you

I know it means nothing to you

But you were everything to me

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm out here, still broken

Selling my soul so you would never end up alone

I'm focused enough to know that you

Had versions of the truth

One moment, it's over

Hold back my fеar 'cause I'm about to let go

Work so hard, nevеr let you know

About the four letter words

Behind the faces I show

[Verse 2]

You were lost, you were home

You were drenched in violence

You were changed and all alone

They saved your life but it kept you here

You said these words would never save you

You said my lines would never change you

I know it means nothing to you

God, it was everything to me

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm out here, still broken

Selling my soul so you would never end up alone

I'm focused enough to know that you

Had versions of the truth

One moment, it's over

Hold back my fear 'cause I'm about to let go

Work so hard, never let you know

About the four letter words

Behind the faces I show

[Bridge]

I pulled you closer to me

I've held you down for so long

I felt when you couldn't breathe

I was there when it went wrong

I was there when it all went wrong

And I was there when it all went wrong

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm out here, still broken

Selling my soul so you would never end up alone

I'm focused enough to know that you

Had versions of the truth

One moment, it's over

Hold back my fear 'cause I've got to let go

You work so hard, never let them know

About the four letter words

Behind the faces you show

Behind the faces you show

Behind the faces you....
