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 even (1)________________ myself
When I'm speaking
It's the voice 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 make it all okay
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 (2)________ worse
How can I (3)________ anymore
When I love you a little less (4)________ before?

Oh, (5)________ are we doing?
We are turning (6)________ dust
Playing house in the ruins of us
Running back through the fire
When there's nothing (7)________ to save
It's (8)________ chasing the (9)________ (10)________ 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 (13)____________ 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 (14)________ worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a (15)____________ (16)________ than before?
But we're running through the fire
When there's nothing left to save
It's like (17)______________ the (18)________ last train
When we both (19)________ it's too late (too late)
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything
That (20)________ heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Oh, the (21)__________ hurts
And (22)________ worse
So how can I give anymore
When I (23)________ you a little less (24)________ before?
Oh, you know (25)________ I love you a little less than before
Let me (26)________ you for the (27)________ time
It's the last (28)____________ to feel again
