Cinematography by Tim Janssens. Lyrics I try to fit the pieces together But they still crumble up each time I try to make sense of these feelings Most have no reason or rhyme My heart is like a piece of paper Torn up and left to blow away Brittle and soft is the illusion This little game of love likes to play I won’t be your fool No I won’t be used I will not surrender Just trying to remember What it feels like to be loved Oh Oh Oh The pages turn like the seasons Each time I’m faced with something new Dreams have a way of taking over To try to make your heart confused Waves come crashing like a fever Sucking the life out of midair Seems that nature’s course is futile A hurricane one’s soul cannot bear
