You started off empty, but didn’t know why I tried to be honest, so you wouldn’t cry You gave me your heart, I gave you my soul We promised not to lose control
(We gave up so much) That life had to live (We gave up so much) That we shouldn’t give We’re both lonely now Afraid to trust in who we are The love that brought us together It’s now tearing us apart
If you feel it in your soul, and you want to be alone If you’re losing all control, then you’ve got to let go You can’t lie here anymore, pretending you don’t feel Either lose me in your dreams, or let me be real
(Can I forgive you? Can I still trust you?) Let me be real (Can I still love you? Do I still want to?)
You let me be near you, but never inside I wanted to reach out; you couldn’t decide You gave me one chance, I gave you one more So tell me what you’re waiting for
(We gave up so much) That life had to live (We gave up so much) That we shouldn’t give We’re both lonely now Afraid to trust in who we are The love that brought us together It’s now tearing us apart
Can you feel it in your soul, and you want to be alone? If you’re losing all control, then you’ve got to let go You can’t lie here anymore, pretending you don’t feel Either lose me in your dreams, or let me be real
If you feel it in your soul, and you want to be alone If you’re losing all control, then you’ve got to let go You can’t lie here anymore, pretending you don’t feel Either lose me in your dreams, or let me be real
Oh… why won’t you let me be real? (Oh…) Why won’t you let me be real? (Oh…) Why won’t you let me be real? (Oh…) Why won’t you let me be real?
