[Verse 1]
Of all those words you could have chose
You just sat there silent
Of all those things I should have known
You just smiled and held your breath
You said these words would never save you
You said these lines could never change you
I know it means nothing to you
God, it means everything to me

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm out here, still broken
Selling my soul so you would never end up alone
I'm focused enough to notice you
Had versions of the truth
One moment, it's over
Hold back my fear cause I'm about to let go
Words so hard
Never let them know
About the four letter words
Behind the faces you show

[Verse 2]
You were lost, but you were home
You were drenched in violence
You were changed and all alone
They saved your life but kept you here
You said these words would never save you
You said these lines can never change you
I know it means nothing to you
God it means everything to me
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm out here, still broken
Selling my soul so you would never end up alone
I'm focused enough to notice you
Had versions of the truth
One moment, it's over
Hold back my fear cause I'm about to let go
Words so hard
Never let them know
About the four letter words
Behind the faces you show

[Bridge]
I pulled you closer to me
I held you down for so long
I felt when you couldn't breathe
I was there when it went wrong

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm out here, still broken
Selling my soul so you would never end up alone
I'm focused enough to notice you
Had versions of the truth
One moment, it's over
Hold back my fear cause I'm about to let go
Words so hard
Never let them know
About the four letter words
Behind the faces you show
Behind the faces you show
