all you want to see is make believe

Let me hold you for the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
But you broke me, now I can't feel anything
When I love you, it's so untrue
I can't even convince myself
When I'm speaking it's the voice of someone else

Oh what are we doing?
We are turning into dust, playing house in the ruins of us
Running back through the fire when there's nothing left to save
It's like chasing the very last train when we both know it's too late

It tears me up
I try to hold on but it hurts too much
I try to forgive but it's not enough to make it all okay

You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything that your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts, a lie's worse
How can I give anymore?
When I love you a little less than before
