Death By A Thousand Cuts by Taylor Swift

Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
Flashbacks waking me up
I get drunk, but it's not enough
'Cause the (1)______________ comes and you're not my baby
I (2)________ through the windows of this love
Even (3)____________ we boarded them up
Chandelier's still flickering here
'Cause I can't pretend it's ok (4)________ it's not
It's death by a thousand cuts
I dress to kill my time
I (5)________ the (6)________ way home
I ask the (7)______________ lights if it'll be all right
They say "I don't know"
And what once was ours is no one's now
I see you everywhere
The only thing we share
Is this small town
You said it was a (8)__________ love
One for the ages
If the story's over
Why am I still writing pages?
Saying goodbye is (9)__________ by a thousand cuts
Flashbacks waking me up
I get drunk, but it's not enough
'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby
I look through the (10)______________ of this love
Even though we boarded them up
Chandelier still flickering here
'Cause I can't pretend it's (11)________ when it's not
It's death by a thousand cuts
My heart, my hips, my body, my love
Trying to find a part of me (12)________ you didn't touch
Gave up on me like I was a bad drug
Now I'm searching for (13)__________ in a haunted club
Our songs, our films, united we stand
Our country, (14)__________ it was a (15)______________ land
Quiet my (16)__________ with the touch of (17)________ hand
Paper cut stings from our (18)__________ thin plans
My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust
Trying to find a part of me you didn't take up
Gave you too much but it wasn't enough
But I'll be all right, it's just a thousand cuts
I get drunk but it's not enough
'Cause you're not my baby
I (19)________ through the windows of this love
Even (20)____________ we (21)______________ them up
Chandelier's still flickering here
'Cause I can't pretend it's ok when it's not
No, it's not
It's death by a thousand cuts
Trying to find a part of me that you didn't touch
My body, my love
My trust
But it wasn't enough, it wasn't enough, no, no
I (22)________ the long way home
I ask the traffic lights if it'll be all right
They say "I don't know"
