Broken Strings by James Morrison & Nelly Furtado

Let me hold you
For the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
But you broke me
Now I can't feel anything

When I love you and so untrue
I can't (1)________ convince myself
When I'm speaking
It's the (2)__________ of someone else

Oh... it tears me up
I try to hold on but it hurts too much
I try to forgive but it's not enough
To (3)________ it all okay
You can't play on (4)____________ strings
You can't feel anything
That (5)________ (6)__________ don't (7)________ to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Oh the truth hurts
And (8)________ worse
How can I give anymore
When I (9)________ you a little less (10)________ before?

Oh, (11)________ are we doing?
We are turning into dust
Playing house in the ruins of us
Running (12)________ (13)______________ the fire
When there's nothing left to save
It's (14)________ (15)______________ the very (16)________ train
When it's too late (too late)
Oh... it tears me up
I try to hold on but it hurts too much
I try to (17)______________ but it's not enough
To make it all okay
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything
That your (18)__________ don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a (19)____________ less than before?
But we're running (20)______________ the fire
When there's nothing left to save
It's like chasing the very last train
When we (21)________ know it's too late (too late)
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything
That your heart don't (22)________ to feel
I can't tell you (23)__________________ that ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts
And (24)________ worse
So how can I give anymore
When I love you a (25)____________ less than before?
Oh, you know that I love you a little less than before
Let me hold you for the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
