You're letting go But I need to know what should I do The more I pull you in, the more that you get loose We're playing games, but I can never win with you Every spark has an ending like a burning fuse I'm on the edge The more that I try to confess, the more our feelings collide And all your dreams will fade until nothing is left If you keep looking behind You drain my heart, then you fill it up You keep cutting me short, and you always put a pressure On my triggerfinger You keep pulling my chain in a hurricane I try breaking away, but is sinking to the pressure and I sense you're an ember We're on a road, heading nowhere as we're steering blind We're on our own, with each other racing side by side Nowhere to go, but I am heading to the end of time We'll never know where we're going Never know if it's right I'm on the edge The more that I try to confess, the more our feelings collide And all your dreams will fade until nothing is left If you keep looking behind You drain my heart, then you fill it up You keep cutting me short, and you always put a pressure On my triggerfinger You keep pulling my chain in a hurricane I try breaking away, but is sinking to the pressure and I sense you're an ember You keep pulling my chain in a hurricane I try breaking away, but is sinking to the pressure and I sense you're an ember Everything's long, long gone Everything that we know Everything was easy Everything hot went cold Everything's long, long gone Everything that we know Everything was easy Everything hot went cold
