Shattered Hearts (October 29, 2013)

lyrics

[Verse 1]

Once more, you see "The One,"
Break like the setting sun
It's not new but you wanted it to, to be
She's grabbed another branch
But still has not let go of the one she holds
Like we're vines and rope

[Chorus]

Never, never, never, never again
(woah, woah, woah)
Don't say, "Never, never, never, never" again
(woah, woah, woah)

[Verse 2]

I watched my beloved one
Break like a hit and run
If it's time to go, at least let me know -- you know?!?
The punches you threw at me
Sometimes they'd break my face
But to this day, they hit right here

[Chorus]

Never, never, never, never again
(woah, woah, woah)
Don't say, "Never, never, never, never" again
(woah, woah, woah)

[Tag]

'Cos sometimes these meanings
Take the shape of fleeting lovers
Strangle a heart and watch it beat again
(woah, woah, woah)

[Bridge]

So the place we start is the place we end
Nothing build on lies could become much else
You can push, you can shove, but eventually
They'll rise and say:
"Everyone, everything I have come to know
They are gone if you leave
But I've lost before
I am worth much more than the leftovers you've left me with."

[Chorus]

Never, never, never, never again
(woah, woah, woah)
Don't say, "Never, never, never, never" again
(woah, woah, woah)

[Tag]

'Cos sometimes these meanings
Take the shape of fleeting lovers
Strangle a heart and watch it beat again
(woah, woah, woah)

[Ad/lib]
Our shattered hearts will learn to beat again
Our, our, our shattered hearts will learn to beat again
Woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah

[Outro]

You can hide from me
But you won't escape what you're running from:
It's you
La, la, la, la, la
