Bm                       A
How did we end up like this
D                G
Under a burning sky?
Bm                         A
Some things are better unsaid. 
D                G
It's easier to lie. 

                   Bm                 A
I'm burning, but my heart is on the wire.
                         D               G 
Don't need a thousand guards to lock me in.
                 Bm              A 
Doesn't take a fool to start a fire. 
          D               G
Solitary spark and wars begin. 

                    Bm
You say it's only words
A                      G
And that it will get easier with time. 
                 Bm
Nothing's only words 
A
That's how hearts get hurt. 

   D 
I can't, I can't 
   G                           Bm
I can't stop hearing all the words you said
   A                          D
I can't stop hearing all the words you said 
   G                          Bm

Bm                       D
How did it all come to this?
G                     D 
We started off as friends.
Bm                   D 
It makes it easy to leave
     G                    D
If we're strangers by the end. 

                   Bm                 A
I'm burning, but my heart is on the wire.
                         D               G
