Death By A Thousand Cuts

(My, my, my, my) (My, my, my, my) (My, my, my, my) (My, my, my, my) (My, my, my, my) (My, my, my, my) (My, my, my, my) (My, my, my, my) Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts Flashbacks waking me up I get drunk, but it's not enough 'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby I look through the windows of this love Even though we boarded them up Chandelier's still flickering here 'Cause I can't pretend it's ok when it's not It's death by a thousand cuts I dress to kill my time I take the long way home I ask the traffic lights if it'll be all right They say, "I don't know" And what once was ours is no one's now I see you everywhere The only thing we share Is this small town You said it was a great love One for the ages But if the story's over Why am I still writing pages? 'Cause saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts Flashbacks waking me up I get drunk, but it's not enough 'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby I look through the windows of this love Even though we boarded them up Chandelier still flickering here 'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not It's death by a thousand cuts My heart, my hips, my body, my love Trying to find a part of me that you didn't touch Gave up on me like I was a bad drug Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club Our songs, our films, united we stand Our country, guess it was a lawless land Quiet my fears with the touch of your hand Paper cut stings from our paper thin plans My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust Trying to find a part of me you didn't take up Gave you too much but it wasn't enough But I'll be all right, it's just a thousand cuts I get drunk but it's not enough 'Cause you're not my baby I look through the windows of this love Even though we boarded them up Chandelier's still flickering here 'Cause I can't pretend it's ok when it's not No, it's not It's death by a thousand cuts (you didn't touch) Trying to find a part of me that you didn't touch My body, my love, my trust (it's death by a thousand cuts) But it wasn't enough, it wasn't enough, no, no I take the long way home I ask the traffic lights if it'll be all right They say, "I don't know"
