'Cause this is how it starts, starts, starts
This is how it starts, starts, starts (starts)

It's my fault, 'cause I'm falling for it
You always say that you were wrong
Then you change the story
I gave you my arm, and now I'm paying for it
You always leave me skin and bones, then you come back for it

Why do you torture my only peace of mind
Until I fall apart again?

You always say you need me
Then you go and leave me all alone and bleeding out in the dark
I really wanna trust my instinct to my faith
But I'm so scared you're gonna tear us apart
'Cause this is how it starts (starts, starts, starts)
This is how it starts (starts)

I draw the lines, but they loose and faded
Or maybe you're just fine and I'm mistaken
I don't know why it's so complicated
Because there's nothing in your eyes that says I'm worth saving

Why do you torture my only peace of mind
Until I fall apart again?

You always say you need me
Then you go and leave me all alone and bleeding out in the dark
I really wanna trust my instinct to my faith
But I'm so scared you're gonna tear us apart
'Cause this is how it starts (starts, starts, starts)
This is how it starts (starts)

All this back and forth is overwhelming
I'm barely hanging on, but you don't care (but you don't care)
I gave you what you want
Then why did you shelve me?
Hang on or let me go, hang on or let me go

Why do you torture my only peace of mind
Until I fall apart again?

You always say you need me
Then you go and leave me all alone and bleeding out in the dark
I really wanna trust my instinct to my faith
But I'm so scared you're gonna tear us apart
'Cause this is how it starts (starts, starts, starts)
This is how it starts (starts)

'Cause this is how it starts (starts, starts, starts)
This is how it starts (starts)
It's my fault, 'cause I'm falling for it
You always say that you were wrong
Then you change the story
