Back and forth we chase our love For our lives we're holding on I keep my heart on the front lines And you know how to promise me it'll work out fine It's really not hard to lie to myself I fall for it everytime That it's safer here on the front lines Back and forth we chase our love For our lives we're holding on to something lifeless Ain't it funny how it works like that Don't let our friends get too close Can't afford to let them see the damage Won't understand it Ain't it funny how it hurts like that They'll say learn how to let go But I'll talk out loud on the drive home And I'll convince myself that nobody could love me better Does it really matter They say it does They say that I should learn how to let go Back and forth we chase our love For our lives we're holding on to something lifeless Ain't it funny how it works like that Don't let our friends get too close Can't afford to let them see the damage Won't understand it Ain't it funny how it hurts like that Back and forth we chase our love For our lives we're holding on Back and forth we chase our love For our lives we're holding on
