Lyrics

0:22Lying next to you
0:24Wishing I could disappear
0:31Let you fall asleep
0:33And vanish out into thin air
0:37It's the elephant in the room
0:43And we pretend that we don't see it
0:50It's the avalanche that looms above our heads
0:56And we don't believe it
0:59Trying to be perfect
1:01Trying not to let you down
1:09Honesty is honestly
1:11The hardest thing for me right now
1:18While the floors underneath our feet
1:21Are crumbling' the walls we built together tumbling
1:27I still stand here holding up the roof
1:34Cause it's easier than telling the truth
1:47I still keep your photographs
1:49I remember how we used to laugh
1:56I can keep on losing sleep
1:59If you're okay with being torn in half
2:05It's the elephant in the room
2:09And we pretend that we don't see it
2:15It's the avalanche that looms above our heads
2:21And we don't believe it
2:25Trying to be perfect
2:27Trying not to let you down
2:34Honesty is honestly
2:36The hardest thing for me right now
2:44While the floors underneath our feet
2:47Are crumbling' the walls we built together tumbling
2:53I still stand here holding up the roof
3:00Cause it's easier than telling the truth
3:04Stop ignoring that our hearts are mourning
3:10And let the rain come in
3:13Stop pretending that it's not ending
3:19And let the end begin' oh yeah
3:41Trying to be perfect
3:43Trying not to let you down
3:50Honesty is honestly
3:52The hardest thing for me right now' yeah
3:59While the floors underneath our feet
4:03Are crumbling' the walls we built together tumbling
4:09I still stand here holding up the roof
4:16Cause it's easier than telling the truth
4:26It's easier than telling the truth
Lying next to you
Wishing I could disappear
Let you fall asleep
And vanish out into thin air
It's the elephant in the room
And we pretend that we don't see it
It's the avalanche that looms above our heads
And we don't believe it
Trying to be perfect
Trying not to let you down
Honesty is honestly
The hardest thing for me right now
While the floors underneath our feet
Are crumbling' the walls we built together tumbling
I still stand here holding up the roof
Cause it's easier than telling the truth
I still keep your photographs
I remember how we used to laugh
I can keep on losing sleep
If you're okay with being torn in half
It's the elephant in the room
And we pretend that we don't see it
It's the avalanche that looms above our heads
And we don't believe it
Trying to be perfect
Trying not to let you down
Honesty is honestly
The hardest thing for me right now
While the floors underneath our feet
Are crumbling' the walls we built together tumbling
I still stand here holding up the roof
Cause it's easier than telling the truth
Stop ignoring that our hearts are mourning
And let the rain come in
Stop pretending that it's not ending
And let the end begin' oh yeah
Trying to be perfect
Trying not to let you down
Honesty is honestly
The hardest thing for me right now' yeah
While the floors underneath our feet
Are crumbling' the walls we built together tumbling
I still stand here holding up the roof
Cause it's easier than telling the truth
It's easier than telling the truth
