Don't you tell me you're fine
I can tell when you're lying
Caught you slipping on ice
But your heart is on fire
'Cause I notice your scars
And I know that it's hard
And I hope you don't start
Gettin' all quiet
'Cause we made it so far
I don't wanna restart
Recollecting these sparks
Reconnecting these wires
'Cause I'm scared of the dark
Can we skip to the part
Where you fall in my arms
And you tell me you're tired?

You can tell me you're tired

Last night you looked quite alright
But you seem so formal all the time
'Cause you laugh and smile, but you never cry
So why? Are you tired?
We go where we want to go
And we call whatever we want home
And we wonder why they never leave us on our own

Don't you tell me you're fine
I can tell when you're lying
Caught you slipping on ice
But your heart is on fire
'Cause I notice your scars
And I know that it's hard
And I hope you don't start
Gettin' all quiet
'Cause we made it so far
I don't wanna restart
Recollecting these sparks
Reconnecting these wires
'Cause I'm scared of the dark
Can we skip to the part
Where you fall in my arms
And you tell me you're tired?

You can tell me you're tired

They say you're better off by yourself
But they never understood just how you felt
When the beat dies down and your soul just melts
And you don't have to hold back tears
'Cause after everything I'm here for you
There's nothing you should fear

Don't you tell me you're fine
I can tell when you're lying
Caught you slipping on ice
But your heart is on fire
'Cause I notice your scars
And I know that it's hard
And I hope you don't start
Gettin' all quiet
'Cause we made it so far
I don't wanna restart
Recollecting these sparks
Reconnecting these wires
'Cause I'm scared of the dark
Can we skip to the part
Where you fall in my arms
And you tell me you're tired?

You can tell me you're tired
