[Intro]
0:00
Verse 1
0:19
I’m close to not caring, I’m done with the sharing
0:19
Every time I open up it’s blood in the air
0:24
I’ve bled for connections that never stay fair
0:29
Heart on the table, they leave it right there
0:34
I’m weak from watching selfish hands take and take
0:38
They plow straight ahead, never look, never wait
0:43
I swallowed my voice, called it keeping the peace
0:48
But silence got heavy, now it’s making me sick
0:53
Pre-Chorus
0:57
I trained my heart to be honest, to stay true
0:57
But nothing comes easy the way it seems to for you
1:02
My intentions fall flat, get twisted, misplaced
1:07
I give them my best, they give me disgrace
1:12
Chorus
1:16
(HOOK)
1:16
If I don’t love again, don’t call me cold
1:16
I carried too much for too long on my own
1:19
My heart still feels, yeah it always will
1:22
But I’m tired of bleeding just to prove that I’m real
1:24
So if I walk away, if I let it be
1:26
It’s not that I’m broken —
1:31
It’s because I’m weary
1:32
Verse 2
1:39
Sometimes I wonder if I’m paying a debt
1:39
For a life I don’t remember, a soul I regret
1:44
‘Cause the love that I give feels empty, misread
1:49
No meaning in the words when they leave my chest
1:53
My heart swells up, my eyes always tell
1:59
I can’t hide the weight of this personal hell
2:03
Surrounded by people, still alone in the room
2:08
Smiling through echoes of an empty truth
2:13
Pre-Chorus
2:19
I stayed too long, called it loyalty
2:19
But complacency’s poison, it’s killing me
2:23
I held the line, I played my part
2:29
Now I’m jaded from guarding a genuine heart
2:33
Chorus
2:38
If I don’t love again, don’t call me cold
2:38
I carried too much for too long on my own
2:41
My heart still feels, yeah it always will
2:43
But I’m tired of bleeding just to prove that I’m real
2:45
So if I walk away, if I let it be
2:48
It’s not that I’m broken —
2:52
It’s because I’m weary
2:54
Bridge
2:58
My life is my life
2:58
My strife is my own
3:01
I tried to save worlds
3:03
While losing my home
3:06
I know how to love
3:07
I just don’t know when
3:10
It stops being healing
3:12
And starts hurting again
3:14
Break
3:17
(half-time, emotional hit)
3:17
Don’t ask me for more
3:19
When I’m running on fumes
3:20
Don’t ask me to stay
3:23
In a heart-shaped wound
3:25
Final Chorus
3:27
If I don’t love again, don’t shame my soul
3:28
I gave it all till there was nothing to hold
3:31
My heart still beats, my scars still feel
3:33
But I won’t die slowly just to keep love ideal
3:36
So if I choose peace, if I set it free
3:38
It’s not that I’m heartless —
3:42
It’s because I’m wearyYeah…
3:45
Still human.
3:50
Still here.
3:51
Just weary.
3:53
