The birds have left their trees

The light pours onto me

All those words that we exchanged

Is it any wonder things get brooooooke

'Cause in my heart and in my head

I'll never take back the things I said,

In my heart and in my head

Tell my why this has to end
G
Oh, no
D
Oh, nooooooooo

C
I can't save us

My Atlantis, we fall
We built this town on shaky ground

We build it up to pull it down

Now all the birds have fled

The hurt just leaves me scared

Losing everything I've ever known

Maybe I'm not built for love
C
If I knew that I could reach you,
Em D
I would gooo-oooo

Oh, no
