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
If the story's over
Why am I still writing pages
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
Trying to find a part of me
That you didn't touch
My body my love
My trust
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
