One more this, one more that, one more love you
I hate that I've been keeping score
But your silence, it could start a war
One more half of a truth, one more we're through
Now you're standing outside my door, with a line that's never worked before

Ooh, what makes you think your tears can put this fire out?

And you call it love, how can you sit and let us turn to dust?
Think you can kill it and it grows right back?
Oh, no, no, it doesn't work like that
And it's just like you, pushing the limit like you're born to lose
Think you can bend it and that we won't crack
Oh, no, no, it doesn't work like that
It was over

Way before you dropped my hand
What a slow-burn-let-down of a mess
Can you see it yet?
Did you notice?

And you call it love, how can you sit and let us turn to dust?
Think you can kill it and it grows right back?
Oh, no, no, it doesn't work like that
And it's just like you, pushing the limit like you're born to lose
Think you can bend it and that we won't crack
Oh, no, no, it doesn't work like that

No, no, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, it doesn't
No, no, no, no
It doesn't work like that

Ooh, what makes you think your tears can put this fire out?

And you call it love, how can you sit and let us turn to dust?
Think you can kill it and it grows right back?
Oh, no, no, it doesn't work like that
And it's just like you, pushing the limit like you're born to lose
Think you can bend it and that we won't crack
Oh, no, no, it doesn't work like that (it was over)

No, no, no, no, no (it was over)
No, no, no, no, it doesn't
No, no, no, no
It doesn't work like that
