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

Oh... it (3)__________ me up
I try to hold on but it hurts too much
I try to forgive but it's not enough
To make it all okay
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything
That (4)________ heart don't (5)________ 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 little less than before?

Oh, what are we doing?
We are (6)______________ into dust
Playing (7)__________ in the ruins of us
Running back through the fire
When there's nothing left to save
It's (8)________ (9)______________ the (10)________ last train
When it's too late (too late)
Oh... it tears me up
I try to hold on but it (11)__________ too much
I try to forgive but it's not enough
To make it all okay
You can't (12)________ on broken strings
You can't feel anything
That (13)________ heart don't want to feel
I can't (14)________ you something that ain't real
Oh, the (15)__________ hurts
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before?
But we're running through the fire
When there's nothing left to save
It's like chasing the very last train
When we both (16)________ it's too late (too late)
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything
That your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts
And (17)________ worse
So how can I give anymore
When I love you a (18)____________ less (19)________ before?
Oh, you (20)________ that I (21)________ you a little less (22)________ before
Let me hold you for the last time
It's the (23)________ chance to feel again
