Lyrics

Had a word with my friend
Said he’d open his eyes
They’d been closed for so long
Couldn’t tell what was wrong
Couldn’t tell what was right

He was treating her bad
He was letting her down
Didn’t know what to say
Thought about it all day
Thought about it all night

I gave you all I had
(I had)
I did it all for you
And every dream I had
(I had)
You broke them right in two

I’ve been having a serious chat with the ceiling
It breaks my heart
It tells me the truth
And truth be told I just can’t get ahold of my feelings
They hide away
They won’t pick up the phone
(Bring bring)

When I saw him again
He looked exactly the same
He’d been holding out hope
Told himself he could cope
Cope with all of the shame

But I know deep inside
That there's no hope in sight
He’s been watching repeats
Of shows that he doesn’t like
Still he says he’s alright

At least I know I tried
(I tried)
It wasn’t meant to be
And I every night I cried
(I cried)
Through all the tears
You never seemed to see

I’ve been having a serious chat with the ceiling
It breaks my heart
It tells me the truth
And truth be told I just can’t get ahold of my feelings
They hide away
They won’t pick up the phone

(Bring bring)
(Bring bring)
(Bring bring)

Oh, I gave you all I had
I did it all for you
And every dream I had
You never cared
You broke them right in two

Had a word with my friend
Said he’d open his eyes
They’d been closed for so long
Couldn’t tell what was wrong
Couldn’t tell what was right

I’ve been having a serious chat with the ceiling
It breaks my heart
It tells me the truth
And truth be told I just can’t get ahold of my feelings
They hide away
They won’t pick up the phone

(And I know you're my friend but it's been on my mind)
(I gave you all I had)
I’ve been having a serious chat with the ceiling
(You're an audacious guy but you're crossing a line)
It breaks my heart
(I did it all for you)
It tells me the truth
(And no word of a lie, you're a thorn in my side)
(And every dream I had)
And truth be told I just can’t get ahold of my feelings
(You've been holding me back, I've been letting it slide)
They hide away
(You broke them right in two)
They won’t pick up the phone

(Bring bring)
(Bring bring)
(Bring bring)
Bring her back to me
