Look maybe I'll start

I mean you can if you want to, but if you won't

I can start 'cause I've been thinking over

Every single thing I might've ever said and done

There are just so many things I wish I hadn't said and done

I feel heavy

Now that things are said and done, I just feel heavy

'Cause I've been carrying around all of this with me

And if I never make a sound, it might just kill me

I been swallowing it down for such a long time

I been living with this now for quite a long time

The problem isn't yours, its really all mine

And what I really wanna tell you is that sometimes

Not every single time, but probably most times

I wish all that fault was yours, but it was all mine

And since were being honest for the first time, in a long time

I see you everywhere I go and everywhere I go

I feel the same damn burning heart

The same damn burning heart

Now here's the worst part

I guess I'll never know for sure what made us go wrong

I can tell cause I've been searching for some broke, missing piece

But it's not any single thing

It's just a million little pinpricks

And their million little stings

That almost broke us

But I don't think we have to let that break us

And that's hard for you and me, but you know, so what?

Who got anywhere by leaving every door shut?

I'm just asking if you feel the way I'm feeling?

Like this hurt that I'm afraid just might start healing

That I don't wanna lose 'cause its the one thing

That I really wanna feel and maybe sometimes

Not every single time, but probably most times

I know every fault of ours and I can own mine

And since we're being open for the first time, in a long time

I see you everywhere I go and everywhere I go

I feel the same damn burning heart

The same damn burning heart
