I Can't Change My Heart


I can take your pictures down off the wall
Fill in the holes you made and repaint the hall
I can change up my surroundings any way that I choose
I can even change the game so that I don’t have to lose

But I can’t change my heart, it’s still broken in two
And I can’t keep my thoughts from always thinking of you
I can change my mind so easy like I’m changing my clothes
I can hide away completely so that nobody knows
And I can always go back home and act like everything’s fine
But I can never go back to you again, not this time

I can go through my old memories and live in the past
Fill pages of my diary and try to make it last
I can forsake all my shattered dreams and push them aside
Go fishing for sympathy to inflate my foolish pride
I can change up my desires and look for somebody else
And I can change the words I speak to lies and keep fooling myself

But I can’t change my heart, it’s still broken in two
And I can’t keep my thoughts from always thinking of you
I can change my mind so easy like I’m changing my clothes
I can hide away completely so that nobody knows
And I can always go back home and act like everything’s fine
But I can never go back to you again, not this time

I can change a burnt out light bulb, I can change my evening dress
But I can’t change what you’ve done to me or change this bloody mess

And I can’t change my heart, it’s still broken in two
And I can’t keep my thoughts from always thinking of you
I can change my mind so easy like I’m changing my clothes
I can hide away completely so that nobody knows
And I can always go back home and act like everything’s fine
But I can never go back to you again, not this time
No I can’t ever go back to you again, not this time
