"heal" lyrics

Dancing on a tightrope
Trying to keep my eyes closed
I don't wanna hurt again
Such a good pretender
Can't even remember
When I didn't hold things in

Lying awake trying to make my brain slow down
We say we're OK but we're just afraid of the fallout

How can we, how can we heal our wounds
When they keep ripping open
How can we, how can we hear the truth when it's
Never been spoken
How can we, how can we heal
When the love is what's keeping us broken

I don't wanna lose you
And you don't wanna lose me
That much we know for sure
So how'd we end up like this
We're dancing in the silence
Hearts bleeding on the floor

Holding you close but I know we both feel the distance
We keep holding on 'cause all could be lost in an instant

So how can we, how can we heal our wounds
When they keep ripping open
How can we, how can we hear the truth when it's
Never been spoken
How can we, how can we heal
How can we, how can we heal
When the love is what's keeping us broken

Tell me that you want me
Tell me that you need me
Tell me that you love me
Say you'll never leave me

But how can we, how can we heal our wounds
When they keep ripping open
How can we, how can we hear the truth when it's
Never been spoken

How can we, how can we heal our wounds
When they keep ripping open
How can we, how can we hear the truth when it's
Never been spoken
How can we, how can we heal
How can we, how can we heal
When the love is what's keeping us broken

Dancing on a tightrope
Trying to keep my eyes closed
