Lyrics
Intro
Verse
Say nothing,
Let your heart speak for itself.
I do not want the mirage of your words,
An illusion of what you want me to believe.
Words mean nothing if the heart doesn't beat,
If this place is a temporary stay.
Resting till it's ready to leave.
Pre-Chorus
I've memorized your voice,
Each "I love you" the same as the one before.
Love lost in translation when we do not speak the same language.
Chorus
I don't want you to pretend that you have something to grieve for,
A love so clearly doomed from the start.
Don't try holding onto the ruins that form,
If love is true, then why force it?
For the heart knows what it wants and would break if it's hurting.
Instrumental Break
Verse
Let the world notice.
Let them want what they think we have.
They believe in fiction,
Their vision distorted.
They hold onto each other,
But all they touch is skin.
With the skeleton dead inside, nothing remains.
Pre-Chorus
I've memorized your voice,
You speak and I know.
But what is knowing if the truth doesn't exist?
Chorus
I don't want you to pretend that you have something to grieve for,
A love so clearly doomed from the start.
Don't try holding onto the ruins that form,
If love is true, then why force it?
For the heart knows what it wants and would break if it's hurting.

Bridge
The sound of your voice it hits me,
But I've put up a shield to deflect your words.
Let it hit another,
For only fools listen.
Ears perked up,
Smiling at the thought.
They don't know what love is outside of a screen,
A post for many to see.
Chorus
I don't want you to pretend that you have something to grieve for,
A love so clearly doomed from the start.
Don't try holding onto the ruins that form,
If love is true, then why force it?
For the heart knows what it wants and would break if it's hurting.
