The Deal ^_^

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh

Verse 1

Went down to the river where the willows bend

Traded my softness for a bulletproof skin

Asked for protection from the ones who come around

Signed my name in water watched it sink into the ground

Pre-Chorus

No more trembling hands

No more broken plans

I'm building me a fortress where the feeling can't get in

Chorus

Sold my soul to keep my heart from breaking

Gave up the warmth just to stop the aching

Now every door I walk through stays inside

I can't be hurt if I'm not alive

Sold my soul to keep my heart from breaking

Gave up the warmth just to stop the aching

Now every door I walk through stays inside

I can't be hurt if I'm not alive

Post-Chorus

Alive

Alive

I can't be hurt if I'm not alive

Verse 2

They say the devil takes but never gives you back

I gave her everything so I'll never have to crack

Every word they whisper bounces off my wall

Can't cut what I already let fall

Pre-Chorus

No more catching fire

No more climbing higher

I'm settling for silence where the thunder used to live

Chorus

Sold my soul to keep my heart from breaking

Gave up the warmth just to stop the aching

Now every door I walk through stays inside

I can't be hurt if I'm not alive

Sold my soul to keep my heart from breaking

Gave up the warmth just to stop the aching

Now every door I walk through stays inside

I can't be hurt if I'm not alive

Post-Chorus

Alive

Alive

I can't be hurt if I'm not alive

Oh-oh-oh

Bridge

Somewhere underneath the frost

There's a girl who loved too much

I buried her with both my hands

She was soft now I am not

Chorus

Sold my soul to keep my heart from breaking

Gave up the warmth just to stop the aching

Now every door I walk through stays inside

I can't be hurt if I'm not alive

Sold my soul to keep my heart from breaking

Gave up the warmth just to stop the aching

Now every door I walk through stays inside

I can't be hurt if I'm not alive

Outro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Not alive

Mm
