Can't Feel The Fall

She came in like whiskey, smooth but mean,

Sweet on the lips, burned deep in between.

Played my heart like a steel-string tune,

Left me cryin' at the light of a blood-red moon.

Then I met an angel with eyes that could save,

Thought I'd finally climbed outta that grave.

Gave her my trust, gave her my all,

But love turned to silence, I watched it fall.

Now I'm scared to love, scared to lose,

Scared to pick a heart I can't choose.

I don't wanna break what I touch again,

Don't wanna hurt some innocent friend.

So I smile and I talk, but I don't feel at all,

Can't let myself rise 'cause I can't feel the fall.

Every "hello" feels like a goodbye,

Every spark just fades before it can fly.

They say time heals, but I'm not sure,

'Cause I'm still haunted by what love was before.

She took my laughter, left my pride,

Now I just drive with ghosts by my side.

The radio's playin' what I can't say,

A song about a heart that lost its way.

Yeah, I'm scared to love, scared to lose,

Scared to pick a heart I can't choose.

I don't wanna break what I touch again,

Don't wanna hurt some innocent friend.

So I smile and I talk, but I don't feel at all,

Can't let myself rise 'cause I can't feel the fall.

Maybe one day, someone will stay,

Break through the walls I built this way.

But until that girl comes along,

I'll just keep hummin' this broken song.

'Cause I'm scared to love, scared to lose,

Scared to walk in someone else's shoes.

I don't wanna promise what I can't give,

I'm just learnin' again how to live.

So I smile and I talk, but I don't feel at all,

'Cause my heart forgot how to feel the fall.

Yeah, I'm tryin' to love but I can't feel the fall…

Not yet… not at all.
