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 (1)______________ of (2)________ love
Even though we (3)______________ them up
Chandelier's still flickering here
'Cause I can't (4)______________ it's ok when it's not
It's death by a thousand cuts
I dress to kill my time
I take the long way home
I ask the traffic (5)____________ if it'll be all right
They say "I don't know"
And what (6)________ 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 (7)__________ love
One for the ages
If the story's over
Why am I still writing pages?
Saying goodbye is death by a (8)________________ cuts
Flashbacks waking me up
I get drunk, but it's not enough
'Cause the morning (9)__________ and you're not my baby
I (10)________ (11)______________ the windows of this love
Even though we (12)______________ them up
Chandelier (13)__________ flickering here

Quiet my fears with the touch of your hand
Paper cut stings from our (20)__________ thin plans
My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust
Trying to (21)________ a (22)________ 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 (23)__________ 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 (24)______________ it's ok when it's not
No, it's not
It's (25)__________ 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"
