When I opened my eyes, what did I see 
Falling from the skies in front of me 
Not quite, but close 
As though I'd seen a ghost 
Was it too much to feel the touch 
Of someone that you couldn't love 
For someone [bad word] and goes 

So how are you, I'm doing well 
I'm fighting tears, you couldn't tell 
I'm not as strong as you thought I was

When you fall down, do you hear the sound 
Of broken dreams 
Hitting the ground 
Baby, please, we're casualties of war 

You lost the fight, I heard it was a good fight 
The kind where no one wins and no one's right 
I could've walked away 
I should've walked away 

You always had a habit of keeping score 
You might have won the battle, but not the war 
What goes [bad word] around 

So how are you, I'm doing well 
I'm fighting tears, you couldn't tell 
I'm not as strong as you thought I was

When you fall down, do you hear the sound 
Of broken dreams 
Hitting the ground 
Baby, please, we're casualties of war 

So how are you, I'm doing well 
I'm fighting tears, you couldn't tell 
I'm not as strong as you thought I was

When you fall down, do you hear the sound 
Of broken dreams 
Hitting the ground 
Baby, please, we're casualties of war 

When you fall down, do you hear the sound 
Of broken dreams 
Hitting the ground 
Baby, please, we're casualties of war
