You Only Get Hurt By Who You Love

You're chasing ghosts through the hollowed halls
Selling pieces of yourself to climb the walls
Giving in to that soulless machine
As it strips away everything in between

You say it's for us a life to build
But these walls get colder our love stands still

You can only get hurt by the ones you love
You can only be let down by the ones you trust
And I'm screaming but I can't break through
'Cause the silence inside is the loudest thing in you

You only get hurt by who you love
You only get hurt by who you love
We're bound by a thread but it's all because
You only get hurt by who you love

I see the weight that you carry home
Each time you answer that cold hard phone
You bury your hurt under office lights
And I'm left alone in the dead of night

You say it's for us a life to build
But these walls get colder our love stands still

You can only get hurt by the ones you love
You can only be let down by the ones you trust
And I'm screaming but I can't break through
'Cause the silence inside is the loudest thing in you

You only get hurt by who you love
You only get hurt by who you love
We're bound by a thread but it's all because
You only get hurt by who

I'm still here hoping you'll see
How much of us you've left behind in misery
I'm right here arms open wide
But I can't hold on if you don't try

You can only get hurt by the ones you love
You can only be let down by the ones you trust
And I'm screaming but I can't get through
'Cause the silence inside is the loudest thing in you

You only get hurt by who you love
You only get hurt by who you love
