how it starts Songtext
von Elijah

′Cause this is how it starts (starts, starts)
Oh, this is how it starts (starts, starts)

It's my fault, ′cause I'm falling for it
You always say that you were wrong, then you change the story
I gave you my all, and now I'm paying for it
You always leave me skin and bones, then you come back for it

Why do you torture my only peace of mind until I fall apart again?

You always say you need me
Then you go and leave me all alone and bleeding out in the dark
I really wanna trust my instinct to my faith
But I′m so scared you′re gonna tear us apart
'Cause this is how it starts (starts, starts)
Oh, this is how it starts (starts)

I draw the lines, but they must have faded
Or maybe you′re just fine and I'm mistaken
Ooh, I don′t know why it's so complicated
Because there′s nothing in your eyes that says "I'm worth saving"

Why do you torture my only peace of mind until I fall apart again?


You always say you need me
Then you go and leave me all alone and bleeding out in the dark
I really wanna trust my instinct to my faith
But I'm so scared you′re gonna tear us apart
′Cause this is how it starts (starts, starts)
Oh, this is how it starts (starts)

All this back and forth is overwhelming
I'm barely hanging on, but you don′t care (but you don't care)
Gave you what you want, then why do you drown me?
Hang on or let me go, hang on or let me go

Why do you torture my only peace of mind until I fall apart again?

You always say you need me
Then you go and leave me all alone and bleeding out in the dark
I really wanna trust my instinct to my faith
But I′m so scared you're gonna tear us apart
′Cause this is how it starts (starts, starts)
Oh, this is how it starts (starts)
'Cause this is how it starts (starts, starts)
Oh, this is how it starts (starts)

It's my fault, ′cause I′m falling for it
You always say that you were wrong, then you change the story
