Broke another glass
In the house we never built
The winter’s always cold enough
Cold enough to kill
Just a little jasmine
Just a little salt in my wounds
What happens if I tell you
To tell the truth
Tell me you love her
And I’ll be gone
Tell me you love her
And my heart will simply run
Just say the words
And I’ll turn around
I’ll be gone without a sound
And burn this house to the ground
It’s like I never left
The house we never built
I broke another mirror
And now there’s twenty one years left
Just a little bad luck
Just a little salt in my wounds
Break it to me gently, gently
Tell me you love her
And I’ll be gone
Tell me you love her
And my heart will simply run
Just say the words
And I’ll turn around
I’ll be gone without a sound
And burn this house to the ground
I’ll burn it down
Feel the heat on my face
See it go up in flames
I’ll burn it down
Burn it into the ground
Tell me you love her
And I’ll be gone
Tell me you love her
And my heart will simply run
Just say the words
And I’ll turn around
I’ll be gone without a sound
And burn this house to the ground
