Torn Lyrics

I follow your hands as they fold into mine

Each little crease is just a peace we've made in time

Lay next to me, cry on my shoulder, it's alright

And still, even if you couldn't speak

I could see it in your eyes or in how hard it is to breathe

Your feathers unfurl like an angel in a dream

You were desperately in love with what you wanted me to be

But now I'm torn from the pages

Of your history, I'm coming undone

I've been holding on

I've been holding on

I've been holding on to a thread as thin as this

Holding on by the lips of a goodbye kiss

An everyday love set to the tune of modern times

Just a little glimpse of what our life would might be like

Now not so sure what cards you're holding

You're too cold to speak, and you're building up your walls

When I try to seek you out, you retreat into the fog

Too tired to fight all the doubts you keep inside

The question still remains, "Am I the one you want for life?"

And now I'm torn from the pages

Of your history, I'm coming undone

I've been holding on

I've been holding on

I've been holding on to a thread as thin as this

Holding on by the lips of a goodbye kiss
