It ain't no wonder why we lose control When we're always heart attack away from falling in love Well, I know that we've been hardly holding on To tell the truth, I can't believe we got this far Running near on empty I wish somebody would've told me That I'd end up so caught up in need of your demons That I'd be lost without you leading me astray Guess that I'm a fool for the way that you caught me Girl, you make my heart break more every day But don't fade away And when I'm just about to pass the point of it all You come ripping all the air from out of my lungs And now it's so hard to be I wish somebody would've told me That I'd end up so caught up in need of your demons That I'd be lost without you leading me astray Guess that I'm a fool for the way that you caught me Girl, you make my heart break more every day Well, I know that we've been hardly holding on To tell the truth, I can't believe we got this far, oh Well, I know that we've been hardly holding on To tell the truth, I can't believe we got this far I wish somebody would've told me I wish somebody would've told me That I'd end up so caught up in need of your demons That I'd be lost without you leading me astray Guess I'm such a fucking fool for the way that you caught me Girl, you make my heart break more every day But don't fade away (well, I know that we've been hardly holding on) To tell the truth, I can't believe we got this far Don't fade away (well, I know that we've been hardly holding on) To tell the truth, I can't believe we got this far So don't fade away
