**Verse 1:** We built a house of dreams on shaky ground, But the cracks were showing long before it fell down. I said forever, but forever didn't last, Now we're just shadows, echoes of the past. You give me love, I drown in my lies, I walked away, and I closed my eyes. Now I'm picking up pieces, lost in the dark, While you're somewhere out there, with a brand new start. **Chorus:** And it's hard to breathe when the walls cave in, Fighting for love when it's already thin. You left me alone with these scars that won’t fade, But it’s not the first time I've felt this way. ' **Verse 2:** He was a ghost in the hallway, he was never around, Taught me to stay quiet, not make a sound. I searched for love in all the wrong places, Instead I Found empty hearts and familiar faces. I gave you love but you gave me lies. U walked away and I closed my eyes Now i’m picked up pieces, lost in the dark While you’re somewhere out there with a brand new start **Chorus:** And it's hard to breathe when the walls cave in, Fighting for love when it's already thin. You left me alone with these scars that won’t fade, But it’s not the first time I've felt this way. **Bridge:** Is this how love’s supposed to hurt? Caught between the blame and shame Drowning in the mess we made Losing you just to find my name And it's hard to breathe when the walls cave in, Fighting for love when it's already thin. SOLO And it's hard to breathe when the walls cave in, Fighting for love when it's already thin. You left me alone with these scars that won’t fade, But it’s not the first time I've felt this way.
