Intro Bite my tongue, you wouldn't hear me anyway Hold my nerve, while I wait for the fires to fade I'm seeing every single word you don't say but I feel like I've seen it all How come every time you ask me to stay, you're halfway gone? If this is the easy way out, then why am I finding it hard as hell I'm Wide awake waiting for sleep to steal my doubt And everything we had that hurts has come back to haunt us but ten times worse I'm holding on so tight it hurts So why are we holding on? *turnaround is the same as intro, with the E from the end of the Chorus followed by the * Close my eyes, am I slowly slipping away If I bide my time I'll get lost like a tear in the rain How come every time you ask me to stay you're halfway gone? If this is the easy way out, then why am I finding it hard as hell I'm wide awake waiting for sleep to steal my doubt And everything we had that hurts has come back to haunt us but ten times worse I'm holding on so tight it hurts So why are we holding on? Why are we holding on? x4 Repeat Chorus (last line of the song in the last Chorus) Why I can't let you go
