The blood is rushing to my head
This room is spinning 'round the bed
A flashing image perforates
Tarnish this memory's embrace
A bursting fiery fortune to misshape

And if my body makes it out
Unscathed and safe from broken vows
A promise broken leaves me holding on

I just can't get a hold of
Why we always hurt the ones we love
Can burning hearts still keep us strong?

A crack has formed in the foundation
The floor is falling out from under me
A pleading loser makes his case
A liar shakes his head and breaks
A life of honor turns into his shame

And if my body makes it out
Unscathed and safe from broken vows
A promise broken leaves me holding on

I just can't get a hold of
Why we always hurt the ones we love
Can burning hearts still keep us strong?

It's all my fault
This eagle's flying down
Below where shadows fall

Now it's sinking in, that I'm sinking into this
Place I never thought I'd be
You can't trust me, I'm not worthy
You won't ever feel this way

This storm is moving over head
The wind is blowing back
We've been misled

And if my body makes it out
Unscathed and safe from broken vows
A promise broken leaves me holding on

I just can't get a hold of
Why we always hurt the ones we love
Can burning hearts still keep us strong?
