She messed up, you're angry.
You think you'll never let it go.
You're holding coals (oh).

You lost it, so confused.
Sixteen and feeling so used.
You ask me to...
take away all this pain inside.
But baby I try...

But, bad news doesn't hit me like it used to.
I see a tear in your eye,
I can't stand to see you crying.
I cannot stand...
You're holding coals
but you're only burning your own hands.
Long way,
long way to go before it's over.
You're holding coals
but you're only burning, only burning your own hands
Oh, your own hands (yeah)

Your best friend, your girlfriend
and you were out of town.
The last to know what it's all about.

You lost it, so confused.
Nineteen still feeling so used.
You ask me to...
take away all this pain inside.
Well baby, I'm trying...

But, bad news doesn't hit me like it used to.
I see a tear in your eye...
I just can't stand to see you crying.
I cannot stand... (nooo)
Cause you're losing yourself
with the loss of someone else.
You're holding coals.
You're losing yourself with the loss, with the loss (oh)...

It's time now for quiet.
Let's put this all behind us.
The last ten years.
A silent reparation for you too.
You're holding coals
but you're only burning your own hands.
Long way,
long way to go before it's over.
You're holding coals
but you're only burning, only burning your own hands.
Oh, your own hands (yeah)
(You're holding coals)
Just let it go now x8
