It was on a wedding day
When my heart began to stray
Never thought I'd make such a big mistake
Throw my life away

I've gone days without food
I've went weeks without sleep
Keeping this in
I've got cuts I can't close
I've got wounds that won't heal
It's all your fault

I've been shattered and wreck
My hand's covered in blood
Scars on my skin
I forgot how to feel
Now I'm weak with this ?
My skin is paper thin

We've been through this
Feeling it, keeping it, holdin' it and
We've gone through this
Over and over again

I go years without tears
In a life with no fear
A life without you
Now I'm breaking my back as
I cover my tracks
My skin is paper thin once again

We've been through this
Feeling it, keeping it, holdin' it and
We've gone through this
Over and over again

I've gone days without food
I've went weeks without sleep
Keeping this in
I've got cuts I can't close
I've got wounds that won't heal
It's all your fault

My american dream
wasn't ever to rise to your ?

We've been through this
Feeling it, keeping it, holdin' it and
We've gone through this
Over and over again

We've been through this
Feeling it, keeping it, holdin' it and
We go through this
Over and over again

This was not a test
This was all for real
This was not a test
This was all for real
This was not a test
This was all for real
This was not a test
This was all for real
