Can hold my breath only for a little while   until reality starts sinking in   Once again I’m settling for second best   turn the page and skip   to the end to where I   Swore that I would try   Since the last time I crossed that line   In the back of my mind I know      It only hurts when you’re eyes are open   Lies get tossed and truth is spoken   It only hurts when that door gets opened   Dreams are lost and hearts are broken      Miles away promise from a burning bed   Two worlds should never collide   One word would end it if you ever heard   Tear the page out that   Reminds me when I   Swore that I’d be strong now the next   time has come and gone   Well maybe I’m wrong I know      It only hurts when you’re eyes are open   Lies get tossed and truth is spoken   It only hurts when that door gets opened   Dreams are lost and hearts are broken      I know what feeling   Its hard to believe in   Someone, someone, who’s not there   I know that you’re waiting   Cause love is worth saving   But only for So long, so long, so long      I swore that I would try   Since the last time, the last time      It only hurts when you’re eyes are open   Lies get tossed and truth is spoken   It only hurts when that door gets opened   Dreams are lost and hearts are broken      It only hurts when you’re eyes are open   Lies get tossed and truth is spoken   It only hurts when that door gets opened   Dreams are lost and hearts are broken
