Too close to see so much of love we stopped breathing
Sweet history ain't enough to keep my heart beating
So many tears for you I sacrificed
Too many lies for you I justified
How can you stand there, say you know who's to blame
How can you act like everything is okay

Don't tell me you love me and put the gun to my head
And say I'm not trying, oh
Don't tell me you want me, and come to my neck
And pretend we're not dying
One of us has got to leave or one of us is gonna be a casualty

It's cold in here, and my heart still wants you to hold me
Baby, you're never here, but whene you're with me
I get so lonely

I see you talking, but your lips don't make a sound
You see me crying, but my tears don't hurt you now
How can you stand there, say you know who's to blame
How can you act like everything is okay

Don't tell me you love me and put the gun to my head
And say I'm not trying, oh
Don't tell me you want me, and come to my neck
And pretend we're not dying
One of us has got to leave or one of us is gonna be a casualty

Breathe in, breathe out
Defend or back down over and over again
I stand there and you go mender and
I fall over and over again

Don't tell me you love me and put the gun to my head
And say I'm not trying, oh
Don't tell me you want me, and come to my neck
And pretend we're not dying
One of us has got to leave or one of us is gonna be a casualty
