Lyrics
Verse 1:
I'm so tired, but acting strong,
For so long I have played along.
I've played my part, I've done my best
But somehow we're still in this mess
But what you did, can't let that go,
Can't sit and act like I don't know
that the words you said, they cut me deep
yet there you sit, not losing any sleep.
[short instrumental solo]
Chorus:
You tore me up, left me broken
And my heart had been wide open.
The front row seat, you gave it up
so now the doors are slamming shut.
You tore me up, left me broken
And my words remain unspoken.
Not laid to rest, but buried deep,
a secret I will always keep!
Verse 2:
Who cares what I was gonna say?
With so much standing in our way,
There's no way to do it by myself,
Can't fight it all without your help!
I'd face the fire, I'd burn alive,
As long as you were by my side!
But It seems no matter what I do
I'm never good enough for you
Bridge:
But I'm done with this, I'm done with you.
It's all your fault, it's time you knew!
Chorus:
You tore me up, left me broken
And my heart had been wide open.
The front row seat, you gave it up
and now the doors are slamming shut.
You tore me up, left me broken
And my words remain unspoken.
Not laid to rest, but but buried deep
A secret I will always keep!
Final Verse:
You keep on digging up the past
while acting like it wasn't bad,
I know there were some good times too
But now they're all tainted by you
Your lame apologies stay ignored
I just can't do this anymore
I still love you, always will,
But it's time that I stopped standing still
Chorus: You tore me up, left me broken
And my heart had been wide open.
The front row seat, you gave it up
and now the doors are slamming shut.
You tore me up, left me broken
And my words remain unspoken.
Not laid to rest, but buried deep
A secret I will always keep!
Chorus:
You tore me up, left me broken
And my heart since then's been closing.
Your front row seat, no longer there
You gave it up, there are no spares
You tore me up, left me broken
And my words have now been spoken.
Now laid to rest, not buried deep
A secret I no longer keep!
Chorus:
You tore me up, left me broken
And my heart since then's been closing.
Your front row seat, no longer there
You gave it up, there are no spares
You tore me up, left me broken
And my words have now been spoken.
Now laid to rest, not buried deep
A secret I no longer keep!
