Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Pick up the pieces and find the ones you hide
Feels like it's ending, but it's just beginning tonight
I can't let what's left of you fade
From something that I couldn't say
Pick up the pieces, find the ones you hide
Love can still let go
Believe me
I know you're broken
I know you're hurting inside
Oh, but you can't waste your life
'Cause you're trying to hold on to mine
This is my last advice
To cut through your tears tonight
Somewhere inside my voice, you know I love you
These are my last few words
The future that you deserve
Somewhere inside my voice, you know I love you
Please stop pretending those aren't defending eyes
It's never easy, but I know that you know I'm right
I can't let what's left of you fade
From something that I couldn't say
So please stop pretending those aren't defending eyes
Love can still let go
Believe me
I know you're broken
I know you're hurting inside
Oh, but you can't waste your life
'Cause you're trying to hold on to mine
This is my last advice
To cut through your tears tonight
Somewhere inside my voice, you know I love you
These are my last few words
The future that you deserve
Somewhere inside my voice, you know I love you
This is my last advice
To cut through your tears tonight
Somewhere inside my voice, you know I love you
These are my last few words
The future that you deserve
Somewhere inside my voice, you know I love you
So pick up the pieces and find the ones you hide
Feels like it's ending, but it's just beginning tonight
