lyrics

Shattered glass broken walls
Holes were made that could never be healed
All the lies you always told
The words you said I could never feel

Found comfort in a shadow
But It’s hard to comfort shadows
Didn’t want to have let you go
But I don’t have the strength

How can I ever love if I didn’t prepare for war
How am I supposed to fight for someone that can’t be found
Never was taught to feel don’t even know how to care
So how can I ever love if you were never there

Ancient bones hold me up
Stronghold here in my blood

Always in your shadows
But I’m done with all your
shadows
Know I have to let it go
To save my own strength

How can I ever love if I didn’t prepare for war
How am I supposed to fight for someone that can’t be
found
I never was taught to feel don’t even know how to care
So how can I ever love if you were never there

Know I was patient
While you kept me waiting
My heart on my sleeve
And my soul on the pavement
I tried to put all the pieces together
The cuts and the shards
Never now always never

How can I ever love if I didn’t prepare for war
How am I supposed to fight for someone that can’t be found
I never was taught to feel don’t even know how to care
So how can I ever love if you were never there
How can I ever love
If you were never there
