I can't bear to hear it again
The sound of our hearts breaking within I'm tired of
staying awake
And I fear those loving eyes for my heart's sake
I'm tired of pain,
tired of lies
Tired of pretending with tears in my eyes
I'm weary of the love that pulls me in
But
I am afraid to drown in your eyes
And I sing, I've heard the promises before
But they're shadowed
like glass on the floor
I'm tired of hoping for what will never be
And I am afraid to lose myself in your reality
I'm tired of pain,
tired of lies Tired of pretending with tears in my eyes
I am weary of the love that pulls me in
But I am afraid to drown in your eyes
And I sing,
so I will build my walls And guard my heart for the pain of love
Tearing me apart
I will close my eyes and turn away
For the love that leads me astray
