Lyrics
VERSE 1
It's the morning, rain is pouring
she cried herself to sleep
Can't stop shaking, heart is breaking
miles above the street
PRE-CHORUS
Couldn't jump, couldn't speak
couldn't seem to feel anything
HALF-CHORUS
Funny how the smallest words
can make or break your entire world
VERSE 2
It's past midnight, not the best light
he whispers in her ear
I have to tell you, I have lost you
I don't love you anymore
PRE-CHORUS
Couldn't breathe, couldn't speak
couldn't seem to feel anything
CHORUS
Funny how the smallest words
can make or break your entire world
The sound they make disappears in space
but oh, those words just keep hangin on
BRIDGE
Try to hang on
CHORUS
Funny how the smallest words
can make or break your entire world
The sound they make disappears in space
but oh, those words just keep hangin on
