Lyrics

[00:31.42] I swore the days were over
[00:35.82] Of courtin empty dreams
[00:40.32] I worshipped at the altar of losing everything
[00:49.19] And the guard I held together
[00:53.31] Was losing all its shape
[00:57.45] And in my head you looked so gorgeous
[01:01.02] It's keeping me awake
[01:04.84] There's a scar on my soul
[01:09.97] So let me down easy
[01:15.09] Break my heart sweetly
[01:19.11] Like you always do
[01:23.65] I guess I can't let go
[01:28.16] Till you wreck me completely
[01:32.97] Break my heart sweetly
[01:37.48] Drape me in blue
[01:58.10] I was never scared of nothin
[02:02.88] Thought I had a home
[02:07.50] Life went and broke me open
[02:12.01] So I carried it alone
[02:15.73] I'm findin all this well-worn sadness
[02:20.82] I never knew I kept
[02:24.56] And I still chase you into heartache
[02:27.99] Everytime you take a step
[02:32.42] There's a scar on my soul
[02:37.12] So let me down easy
[02:41.89] Break my heart sweetly
[02:46.33] Like you always do
[02:51.03] I guess I can't let go
[02:55.18] Till you wreck me completely
[03:00.17] Break my heart sweetly
[03:04.59] Drape me in blue
[03:37.35] I swore the days were over
[03:41.80] Of courtin empty dreams
[03:46.31] I worshipped at the altar
[03:51.19] Of losing everything
[03:54.39] But you had a halo made of diamonds
[03:59.97] Resting on your head
[04:03.33] I should be dealing with my demons
[04:06.66] But I'm dodgin' them instead
[04:11.10] There's a scar on my soul
[04:15.85] So let me down easy
[04:20.61] Break my heart sweetly
[04:25.22] Like you always do
[04:29.52] I guess I can't let go
[04:34.04] Till you wreck me completely
[04:38.69] Break my heart sweetly
[04:46.00] Drape me in blue
