Broken Strings Lyrics - X Factor (uk)

Let me hold you for the last time 

It's the last chance to feel again 

But you broke me, now I can't feel anything 

When I love you and so untrue 

I can't even convince myself 

When I'm speaking it's the voice of someone else 

Oh, it tears me up 

I tried to hold on but it hurts too much 

I tried to forgive but it's not enough 

To make it all okay 

You can't play our broken strings 

You can't feel anything 

That your heart don't want to feel 

I can't tell you something that ain't real 

Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse 

How can I give anymore 

When I love you a little less than before? 

Oh, what are we doing? 

We are turning into dust 

Playing house in the ruins of us 

Running back through the fire 

When there's nothing left to say 

It's like chasing the very last train 

When it's too late, too late 

Oh, it tears me up 

I tried to hold on but it hurts too much 

I tried to forgive but it's not enough 

To make it all okay 

You can't play our broken strings 

You can't feel anything 

That your heart don't want to feel 

I can't tell you something that ain't real 

Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse 

How can I give anymore 

When I love you a little less than before? 

But we're running through the fire 

When there's nothing left to say 

It's like chasing the very last train 

When we both know it's too late, too late 

You can't play our broken strings 

You can't feel anything 

That your heart don't want to feel 

I can't tell you something that ain't real 

Oh, the truth hurts and lies worse 

So how can I give anymore 

When I love you a little less than before? 

Oh, you know that I love you a little less than before 

Let me hold you for the last time 

It's the last chance to feel again
