[James]
Let me hold you for the last time, it's the last chance to feel again
But you broke me, now I can't feel anything
When I love you it's so untrue, I can't even convince myself
When I'm speaking it's the voice of someone else
Oh, it tears me up, I try to hold on but it hurts too much
I try to forgive but it's not enough to make it all okay

You can't play on broken strings, you can't feel anything
That your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts and a lie's worse, how can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before ?

[Nelly]
Oh, what are we doing ? We are turning into dust
Playing house in the ruins of us
[James & Nelly]
Running back through the fire when there's nothing left to save
It's like chasing the very last train when it's too late
Oh, it tears me up, I try to hold on but it hurts too much
I try to forgive but it's not enough to make it all okay

You can't play on broken strings, you can't feel anything
That your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Oh, the truth hurts and a lie's worse, how can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before ?

But we're running through the fire when there's nothing left to save
It's like chasing the very last train when we both know it's too late
[Nelly]
Too late

[James & Nelly]
You can't play on broken strings, you can't feel anything
That your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Well truth hurts and a lie's worse, how can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before ?
Oh, yeah, yeah, I love you a little less than before

Let me hold you for the last time, it's the last chance to feel again.
