Death By A Thousand Cuts by Taylor Swift

Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
Flashbacks (1)____________ me up
I get drunk, but it's not enough
'Cause the (2)______________ comes and you're not my baby
I (3)________ through the windows of this love
Even (4)____________ we boarded them up
Chandelier's still flickering here
'Cause I can't pretend it's ok when it's not
It's death by a thousand cuts
I dress to kill my time
I take the (5)________ way home
I ask the (6)______________ lights if it'll be all right
They say "I don't know"
And what once was (7)________ is no one's now
I see you everywhere
The only thing we share
Is this (8)__________ town
You said it was a great love
One for the ages
If the story's over
Why am I (9)__________ (10)______________ pages?
Saying (11)______________ is death by a (12)________________ cuts
Flashbacks waking me up
I get drunk, but it's not enough
'Cause the (13)______________ comes and you're not my baby
I (14)________ through the (15)______________ of this love
Even (16)____________ we (17)______________ them up
Chandelier (18)__________ flickering here
'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not
It's (19)__________ by a thousand cuts
My heart, my hips, my body, my love
Trying to find a part of me that you didn't touch
Gave up on me like I was a bad drug
Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club
Our songs, our films, united we stand
Our country, guess it was a lawless land
Quiet my (20)__________ with the (21)__________ of your hand
Paper cut stings from our paper 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 look through the windows of this love
Even though we boarded them up
Chandelier's still flickering here
'Cause I can't (22)______________ it's ok (23)________ it's not
No, it's not
It's death by a thousand cuts
Trying to (24)________ a part of me (25)________ you didn't touch
My body, my love
My trust
But it wasn't enough, it wasn't enough, no, no
I take the (26)________ way home
I ask the (27)______________ (28)____________ if it'll be all right
They say "I don't know"
