[verse]
As the words were read
And the pages turned
Cover to cover I guess we
Finished our story
[verse]
At the beginning
The birds were singing
The plot was thickening
What were we thinking?
[pre chorus]
All the time wasted was excused as spent
Try to rip the pages but you can’t forget
I wanted truth but you couldn’t answer
I was sick but you killed me like cancer
[chorus]
It’s hard to believe
You don’t care about me
When you got your head on my chest
Waiting for my heart to beat again
And that’s the hardest part
Yeah you, you have your ear
Listening for my broken heart
That you’ll never, ever hear
[post-chorus]
It’ll never beat for you again
You broke it once, didn’t think twice
So I’ll make sure (I’ll make sure)
That you can never break it again
[verse]
As the words were read
And the pages turned
Cover to cover I guess we
Finished our story
[verse]
In the middle
Life was a riddle
Problems no longer little
Took my heart to twiddle
[pre chorus]
All the time wasted was excused as spent
Try to rip the pages but you can’t forget
I wanted truth but you couldn’t answer
I was sick but you killed me like cancer
[chorus]
It’s hard to believe
You don’t care about me
When you got your head on my chest
Waiting for my heart to beat again
And that’s the hardest part
Yeah you, you have your ear
Listening for my broken heart
That you’ll never, ever hear
[post-chorus]
It’ll never beat for you again
You broke it once, didn’t think twice
So I’ll make sure (I’ll make sure)
That you can never break it again
[verse]
Then came the ending
Summing up what we’re spending
Never read what we’re sending
We never saw this ending
[bridge]
We never saw us ever changing
As we were rearranging
We never saw the downfall
As we were driving into the wall
We were so caught up in pretending
We never saw this ending
[chorus]
It’s hard to believe
You don’t care about me
When you got your head on my chest
Waiting for my heart to beat again
And that’s the hardest part
Yeah you, you have your ear
Listening for my broken heart
That you’ll never, ever hear
[post-chorus]
It’ll never beat for you again
You broke it once, didn’t think twice
So I’ll make sure (I’ll make sure)
That you can never break it again
