It only hurts

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 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 your eyes are open
Lies get tossed and truth is spoken
It only hurts when that door gets open
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 you're wrong, I know

It only hurts when your eyes are open
Lies get tossed and truth is spoken
It only hurts when that door gets open
Dreams are lost and hearts are broken

I know what your feeling, it's hard to believe in Someone, someone who's not there
I know that your 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 your eyes are open
Lies get tossed and truth is spoken
It only hurts when that door gets open
Dreams are lost and hearts are broken

It only hurts when your eyes are open
Lies get tossed and truth is spoken
It only hurts when that door gets open
Dreams are lost and hearts are broken
