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 morning comes and you're not my baby
I look through the windows of this love
Even though we boarded them up
Chandelier's (1)__________ (2)____________________ here
'Cause I can't pretend it's ok when it's not
It's death by a thousand cuts
I (3)__________ to (4)________ my time

I ask the traffic lights if it'll be all right
They say "I don't know"
And what (6)________ was (7)________ is no one's now
I see you everywhere
The (8)________ (9)__________ we share
Is this small town
You said it was a great love
One for the ages
If the story's over
Why am I (10)__________ writing pages?
Saying (11)______________ is (12)__________ 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 (13)______________ the windows of (14)________ love
Even though we boarded (15)________ up

My heart, my hips, my body, my love

Our songs, our films, united we stand
Our country, (20)__________ it was a lawless land
Quiet my fears with the touch of your hand
Paper cut (21)____________ 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 (22)______________ of this love
Even though we boarded them up
Chandelier's (23)__________ flickering here
'Cause I can't (24)______________ 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 take the long way home
I ask the traffic lights if it'll be all right
They say "I don't know"
