I still remember that empty look left on your face
You took the pictures but you left the frames
All we had written, well, it's been erased
Something that I had to do
I cut you deep, you're bleeding through
You're every single shade of blue
I'm staring right in front of you

I can hear your heartbeat slowing down
I can hear your heartbeat turn me around
You can take my life
All you need, make me right
I can't sleep with your heartbeat slowing down

Here you left scattered
Like wishes I led to your room
Bury my face in your pillow
Just to smell your perfume
Outside I'm hungry
But inside I'm just consumed
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe
Losing you is choking me

I can hear your heartbeat slowing down
I can hear your heartbeat turn me around
You can take my life
All you need, make me right
I can't sleep with your heartbeat slowing down

I fucking hate this town
I wanna burn it down
I never felt so cold
And when I burn this town
I hope I burn it down
And leave me on my own
I fucking hate this town
I wanna burn it down
I never felt so cold

I can hear your heartbeat slowing down

I can hear your heartbeat slowing down
I can hear your heartbeat turn me around
You can take my life
All you need, make me right
How can you sleep with your heartbeat slowing down
I can hear your heartbeat slowing down
