three empty words

i'll pick you up at the same time

at the same place

the same old drive

we'll just talk about our day

to try to fill the awkward space tonight

we'll play the songs we used to love

while we try to fall in love again

we don't know who's wrong or right

we don't even care enough to fight

we're going through the motions

'cause we can't fix what's broken

and i know it's gonna hurt

but

darling

i'll go first

'cause i won't keep on saying those three empty words

no

i won't keep on saying those three empty words

we're still talking everyday

i'm running out of things to say to ya

what's really gonna break my heart

is to have to tell your little brother

it might be easier to stay

but it'll never be the same

no

oh

no

and if something doesn't change

then we'll keep on sinking further

oh

we're going through the motions

'cause we can't fix what's broken

and i know it's gonna hurt

but

darling

i'll go first

'cause i won't keep on saying those three empty words

those three empty words

will only make it worse

i'm tired

i can't take it anymore

those three empty words

will only make it worse

we're tired

we can't take it anymore

we're going through the motions

'cause we can't fix what's broken

no

and i know it's gonna hurt

but

darling

i'll go first

i won't keep on saying those three empty words

we don't have to keep on saying those three empty words

no

i can't keep on saying those three empty words
