The Wire by Haim

You know I'm bad at communication
It's the hardest thing for me to do
And it's said, it's the most important part
That relationships (1)________ go through
And I'd give it all away
Just so I (2)__________ say that
I know, I know, I know, I know
That you're gonna be OK anyway
You know there's no rhyme or reason
For the way you turned out to be
I didn't go and try to change my mind
Not intentionally
I know it's hard to hear me say it
But I can't bear to stay and
I just know, I know, I know, I know
That you're gonna be OK anyway
Always keep your heart locked tight
Don't let your mind retire (oh)
But I just couldn't (3)________ it
I tried hard not to fake it
But I fumbled and when I came down to the wire
It felt great
It felt (4)__________ (oh)
But I fumbled him when I came down to the wire
It felt great
It felt right (oh)
But I fumbled him when I came down to the wire
(Does) your imagination
Try to make you what you (5)____________ to be
Because I'm sorry I do what I did
But it (6)________ naturally
And I gave it all away
Just so I (7)__________ say that
Well I know, I know, I know, I know
That you're gonna be OK anyway
Well I try to (8)________ myself together
After all the opportunities
I try to stay true to you and try to
Do what you wanted for me
And I'd give it all away
Just to hear you say that
Well I (9)________ I know, I know, I know
That you're (10)__________ be OK anyway
Always keep your heart locked tight
Don't let your (11)________ (12)____________ (oh)
But I just couldn't take it
I tried hard not to fake it
But I (13)______________ and when I came down to the wire
It felt great
It felt right (oh)
But I fumbled and when I came down to the wire
It felt great
It felt right (oh)
But I fumbled and (14)________ I came down to the wire
(Ooh yeah)

Always keep your heart locked tight
Don't let your mind retire

Always keep your (15)__________ locked tight
Don't let your mind retire (oh)
But I just couldn't take it
