Lyrics

I saw you dancing in the candlelight
Your laughter cut the dark like summer wine
I gave my soul up in a single night
Believed your whispered words were truly mine
You wore my heart like a stolen ring
Shining bright, then vanishing again
Every promise was a fragile string
Tied around my throat, pulling me in

Oh, I love you, but it's not worth the pain
Not worth the nights I call your name in vain
Your touch is fire, your goodbye is rain
Washing me clean, still I'm lost in the flame
I'd die for you, but darling, I won't stay
This love's a war I'm too tired to win today
It's beautiful, but it's killing me slow
I love you, but it's not worth it, no

You come around when the nights get cold
Like a ghost who remembers where I live
One sweet kiss and I forget I'm old
Chasing shadows that never forgive
I built you castles out of broken dreams
You danced inside them, never paid the rent
Now the walls are cracking at the seams
And I'm standing in the ruins, still repent

Oh, I love you, but it's not worth the pain
Not worth the tears that fall like autumn rain
Your heaven's hell dressed up in champagne
I drink it down, then do it all again
I'd bleed for you, but baby, I can't bleed forever
This heart's too heavy, this chain's too clever
It's beautiful, but it's killing me slow
I love you, but it's not worth it, no

Maybe someday I'll forget your eyes
The way they pulled me under like the tide
Maybe I'll wake without these midnight cries
And thank the stars I finally stepped aside
But tonight you're still the song I can't erase
The sweetest poison running through my veins

Yeah, I love you, but it's not worth the fight
Not worth these endless, lonely midnights
I'll keep the memories, release the light
Walk away while I still have the strength inside
It was beautiful, but it's killing me slow
I love you, God help me
It's just not worth it anymore

Not worth it
Not worth it anymore
Not worth it anymore
