[Verse 1]
I joke about it with my friends
Say I'm fine just how I am
But every quiet Sunday night
I reach for someone who ain't there
Every time I start to fall
I talk too much, I hold too tight
They feel me shaking in their arms
And somehow I'm alone by sunrise
[Chorus]
I'm scared I'm running out of heart
Giving pieces till there's nothing left to give
What if I'm the one that breaks it
Every time I get a chance to live
Biggest fear that keeps me up
Ain't ghosts or going into the ground
It's dying with a full back seat
And no one riding when this truck breaks down
[Verse 2]
Mama says, "It only takes one"
Daddy shrugs, "It's in the Lord's hands"
I nod and change the subject quick
Pour my worry in a coffee can
I meet a smile, I feel that spark
Next thing, my head is ten years on
I scare 'em with a wedding ring
Before the first slow song is done
[Chorus]
I'm scared I'm running out of heart
Giving pieces till there's nothing left to give
What if I'm the one that breaks it
Every time I get a chance to live
Biggest fear that keeps me up
Ain't storms or this old body wearing out
It's dying with a folded suit
And no one crying in the second row down
[Bridge]
Maybe somewhere there's a light on
For a fool like me who loves too hard (too hard)
Till then I talk to God at midnight
"Don't let me leave here
Never having shared this heart"
[Chorus]
Yeah I'm scared I'm running out of heart
Giving pieces till there's nothing left to give
What if I'm the one that breaks it
Every time I get a chance to live
Biggest fear that keeps me up
Ain't leaving, it's leaving here unknown
It's taking all this aching love
And still somehow
Still somehow dying alone
