"Swear" lyrics

"Swear"

Staring at half a room
You moved your things when I was gone
So we didn't have to speak at all
It's for the best
I swear on my life it is

I swear on my life it is
I swear on my life it is
I swear on my life it is, yeah it is
I swear on my life it is

Like a painting that's stolen from a gallery
Dust in the corners showing
Where the prettiest colors used to be
People would gather around just to see it
I struggled to fill my lungs again
Even though there's no one to share the air with
'Cause I know you could never just cut me out
And you know I could never just shut my mouth

But I swear on my life I'll try
I swear on my life I'll try
I swear on my life I'll try, yeah I'll try
I swear on my life I'll try

When you fall for somebody else
I don't want a name or a face or details
It just replays inside my head
Over and over and over again
When you fall for somebody else
Cut me loose, don't drag me around
I'll be just fine, I swear on my life
Swear on my life
