Can't Force the Love

Can't tell you if it was for nothing
But I just wanna tell you one thing
I should have shown you all my scars
Before they tore us apart
You could have known right from the start
I was so afraid of looking weak
Lost in my ways in too deep

And knowing that in my soul was tearing me in two
I'm sorry that I couldn't face the truth

'Cause I could feel it in my bones
Before I knew we would never be enough
So I lied to myself even though I tried
I cannot force the love, can't force the love
You burned yourself on something cold
Because I could never give you what you want
And I lied to myself, even though I tried
I cannot force the love, can't force the love

Always give up when things get difficult
'Cause love never fit in with the cynical
And that's why I had to leave
Before you'd see me bleed
I'll never be the person that you need
I hope that you find someone that you deserve
Someone who's not afraid of getting hurt
'Cause I only crawl so I don't have to fall
I'd rather have nothing than take it all

'Cause I could feel it in my bones
Before I knew we would never be enough
So I lied to myself even though I tried
I cannot force the love, can't force the love
You burned yourself on something cold
Because I could never give you what you want
And I lied to myself, even though I tried
I cannot force the love, can't force the love

Force the love, can't force the love
Can't force the love, can't force the love

Can't force the love

'Cause I could feel it in my bones
Before I knew we would never be enough
So I lied to myself even though I tried
I cannot force the love, can't force the love
You burned yourself on something cold
Because I, could never give you what you want
And I lied, to myself even though I tried
I cannot force the love, can't force the love

Force the love, can't force the love
I cannot force the love, can't force the love
