Rules
guitar chords lyrics
The rules you set when we're apart,
They're broken from the start,
But your regimented heart
Can't understand this.
You blame me,
You read between the lines.
You misread all the signs,
Investigate the crimes,
I detect the problem's you.
I'm a broken window,
I'm an open door,
I give a little less,
You take a little more.
We can't have it all...
On a burning page,
You take a little more.
We can't have it all...
On a burning page,
As your heart puts up the barricades,
As it all begins to fade,
I'll still love you.
On a wounded stage,
In the performance of a serenade,
Even in this mess we've made,
I'll still love you...
But there's no use,
Whichever way I'll lose,
If you set the rules!
We fight,
Your punches hit me hard,
But it's your words that leave the scars,
And as the sky bleeds stars,
You tell me that we're through.
But I can't lose you.
I'm a broken window,
I'm an open door,
I give a little less,
You take a little more,
We had it all...
On a burning page,
As your heart puts up the barricades,
As it all begins to fade,
I'll still love you.
On a wounded stage,
In the performance of a serenade,
Even in this mess we've made,
I'll still love you...
But there's no use,
Whichever way I'll lose,
If you set the rules!
Oh, we're holding on,
We're holding on
You got me wrong,
Oh so wrong.
We're holding on,
We're holding on
You got me wrong,
Oh so wrong.
On a burning page,
As your heart puts up the barricades,
As it all begins to fade,
I'll still love you.
On a wounded stage,
In the performance of a serenade,
Even in this mess we've made,
I'll still love you...
But there's no use,
Whichever way I'll lose,
If you set the rules!
