G C
Talk me out of my lies

And forgive myself for trying

Tell me to be brave tonight

And if we compare the timing

Take me out of the wild

Build up my frame of mind

And burn it ‘til you’re set on fire

Tell me when you cut the wires

Talk me out of this time

Open this heart of mine

Tell me when you cut the wires, now

Open this heart of mine

Build up my frame of mind

And burn it ‘til you’re set on fire

Tell me when you cut the wires

Talk me out of this time

Open this heart of mine
