The only good thing about a shattered heart
Is you can put the pieces back together
However you want
But just be careful
And don't be afraid
To give it away again someday
You could tell me I was wrong
But that doesn't make you right
And you could tell me everything
But still not have said anything
But late at night
When you try to fall asleep
The truth crawls into your head
The only good thing about a shattered heart
Is you can put the pieces back together
However you want
But just be careful
And don't be afraid
To give it away again someday
I'll be oh so happy to let you know
That after the tide rolled out
And all your all sticks and stones
That I'm still alive
And we sang beauty to sleep
With all our hostile words
And it's strange what you remember
When your not thinking at all
And somehow we always forget
How our hearts got these scars
I'll be oh so happy to let you know
That after the tide rolled out
And all your all sticks and stones
I'm still alive
I'll be oh so happy to let you know
After our lights go out
Your true colors show
I'm still alive
The only good thing about a shattered heart
Is you can put the pieces back together
However you want
But just be careful where you put them
And don't be afraid
To give it away again someday
I'll be oh so happy to let you know
That after the tide rolled out
And all your all sticks and stones
I'm still alive
I'll be oh so happy to let you know
After our lights go out
Your true colors show
I'm still alive
